Illuminate: Open Reception in Light

From August 12, 2022 4:00 pm until August 12, 2022 7:00 pm

Experience the the interplay of light and sculpture!

For the first time ever the Arts HQ Gallery will showcase illuminated sculptures viewed in day AND in darkness. From August 12th - 25th work can be viewed under gallery lighting, appreciating the artist's skill and attention to detail. August 26th - September 9th our gallery will "go dark" illuminated only by the works themselves.

Illuminate immerses patrons in a different kind of art exhibit. Three local contemporary sculptors will feature works created using metal, wood, minerals, resin and....LIGHT! This all-sculpture exhibit invites viewers into innovative practices in art including 3D printed works, hanging gardens, and bioluminescent minerals cast in resin.
