Description

Join us for the celebratory opening of Common Touch, a multimedia exhibition of new works by artist-in-residence Teresa Jaynes. Common Touch explores the nature, foundations, and limits of perception through the juxtaposition of Jaynes’ multisensory artwork with historical materials documenting the education of the visually impaired in the 19th century.
