Guest Curators
|
We will be kicking off our very first show under a new name and new leadership. We have exciting plans for 2022 and plan to mount four extraordinary shows that tackle perspectives and conversations around pressing issues of social and environmental justice. We have put out a national call to curators who specialize in these areas and will be announcing the line up through 2023 early in the new year. Each show will have a robust programming schedule accompanying it in order to maximize our outreach to our community.
It is important for us to get broad perspectives from both artists and curators across the nation in order to share valuable perspectives with our audiences. We believe that a guest curatorial approach de-centers the conversation from our staff’s very limited experiences, and allows us the opportunity to be facilitators for conversations that are occurring nationally, affecting a larger circle than what we have knowledge of. |
We are seeking quarterly shows to run through 2025. Please reach out with your unique ideas.
