About this Event
We will leave at 5:45 pm from the Graduate Hotel, and return to the Graduate around 7:45 pm.
This tour will be led by Gallery Night Guide Larisa Martino. We will visit the following locations and exhibits:
- BankRI Turks Head Gallery presents “Pangea,” a series by artist Ben Watkins. The word refers to the continent hypothesized by geologists when all land masses were joined together. This work is a light-hearted nod to the idea that we are all connected, which after the collective experience of a worldwide pandemic, we now understand how real this concept is. His multi-colored assemblages use continuous lines and interlocking shapes to explore our own interdependence.
- AS220 Project Space presents “Fragments,” an investigation of displacement, identity, and rituals within the multidisciplinary practice of Masha Ryskin. Expressed with attention to footprints and stains, this collection of work alludes to shifts in memory and history within the temporal quality of human experiences. In the Reading Room, “Forest of Magic '' by Vensa Longton, explores the intersection between who we are and our surroundings, and encourages moments of discovery through inner self connections and our interconnectedness with nature.
- The Gallery at 134 Collaborative / Mathewson Street Church presents PHOTOGRAPHY by Catherine Ibern, exploring her work and unique take on the medium. Ibern uses photography to look at the world through a different lens, capturing the beauty of life from different angles. Through her work, Ibern invites viewers to look at the world through her lens and experience her deep appreciation for it
- Art in the Atrium First U. Art in the Atrium, a program focused on inspiring the community by presenting work by artists with diverse viewpoints, is holding their 2024 Member Show. The theme and the works in this exhibition will explore the Unitarian Universalist Principles.
Half of the seats on the trolley or mini coach will always be available (first-come, first-served), completely free, to anyone who shows up on Gallery Night!
The other half of the seats are available to reserve in advance via Eventbrite. We ask that you donate $1 when you check out, for the convenience of guaranteeing your spot on the tour of your choice ahead of time.
Reserving Multiple Tickets? Eventbrite requires you to make a separate reservation for each ticket. Each time you put in an order, it's only for one ticket (even if you choose to donate more than $1). For example, tickets for 3 people would be 3 separate orders, each with a $1 donation.
Accessibility notes:
- Many of the Gallery Night art spaces are wheelchair accessible. However, the trolleys we hire for Gallery Night cannot accommodate wheelchairs.
- All tours involve some walking and some stops may include stairs.
- We invite wheelchair users to enjoy self-guided tours on Gallery Night, and have created some suggestions (make your own tour tab on our website) where we note which galleries are wheelchair accessible.
