How is the art presented/what is the staging for their artwork?
Visual artists present their art for viewing between performances. It is staged in the hallway and studios at Performing Arts Workshop. Typically, artwork is hung on the walls or tacked up, depending on how the artist wants to display. Artists may bring their own structure to display large photos (like large style easels).
Are the artists present at the event?
The artists should be present at the event to take part in the evening as a networking opportunity. The artists get free refreshments and the opportunity to meet other artists, dancers, and musicians as well as patrons who attend the event.
What are the hours?
8pm - 10pm, every first Friday of the month.
Is the art a donation?
No. It is displayed during the event and then they may take it back home. Artists are welcome to put prices on it to sell. It is an unpaid opportunity but a chance for upcoming artists to get exposure.
