Arts on 3rd
This new program is designed to showcase local arts talents and other fun, inspiring or quirky (yet arty) events on the 3rd floor of the Madden Arts Center.
It’s open to individuals or groups - visual artists, poets or other writers, singer/songwriters, or other performing artists who would like to display their talents. It’s also open to those having a large collection of items with a unique design aesthetic (comic art, concert posters, clothing, toys, etc.)
Available months: February, March, July, August, September, and October
Length of exhibit: During a monthly First Friday Gallery Walk public reception (5-7:30 or 8 pm) with an option to be open to the public on Saturday 10am–2pm (pending room availability.)
Because the program is new, it is bound to evolve as it progresses.
