Exhibition Opening Night at SPAACES

Join us for an unforgettable evening of art, performance, and conversation as we celebrate the opening of Traces of Change: Mark Making, Text, and (Social) Progress?, a new exhibition featuring works by Elizabeth Sher, Eszter Sziksz, and Jill Hoffman-Kowal in a dynamic mixed media exhibition that explores how visual language can reflect and challenge the complexities of contemporary life.

This night will include a live performance by People Trippin - a collaboration between Tihda Vongkoth of Modern Marimba and spoken word artist Melanie Lavender. Their genre-defying performance weaves rhythm, melody, and poetic narrative into a one-of-a-kind "sonopoetic" experience.

Enjoy complimentary refreshments, mingle with the artists, and peek inside our resident studios. All are welcome.
