Join us for Art Alive, a drop-in gallery visit and art-making experience for general audiences that takes place every Saturday and Sunday. This Saturday, artist-educator Angelica Pomar will be on the floor of Carrie Moyer and Sheila Pepe: Tabernacles for Trying Times facilitating discussions of Carrie Moyer's Curtains. Visitors will also be invited to participate in an art-making project inspired by the exhibition.
