Artist Talk at 5:30pm
We are challenging regional artists to pair up and collaborate on bold proposals that transform the LRAC Main Gallery into a unique, immersive visual experience. This collaboration can be between a visual artist(s) and a literary artist(s) and/or musical artist(s) to transfer the gallery space. We ask the collaborating team of two to three artists to think of the gallery space in a fresh new perspective and how they will use the space, lighting, moveable walls and street presence of the Gallery in a new way.
