The Fifth Element: A Curated Party

Many ancient cultures categorized the world around them into four basic elements: earth, wind, fire, and water. Some of them even conceived of a fifth element. In some instances, it fills space and accounts for unseen forces, or connects the other four elements. In other philosophical discourse it gives us the ability to hear and be heard; in other words: communicate. Art has this power to connect, unify, and communicate.

On May 18, 6-10pm at Bounce Innovation Hub, Curated Storefront will be celebrating ART as the conduit through which we express ourselves and our experiences. It is the element we employ to stitch together the different fabrics of our city.

The evening will feature food, music, and art powered by some of our awesome regional creatives. More details to follow.

Each general admission ticket will include access to the party, a cash bar, food provided by local Akron favorites, art experiences, and live music.
