Join us for Final Friday as we celebrate our three current exhibitions, the Platter Project , and an Adult Improv Performance!
The Adult Improv Performance Troupe will be putting on a show at 7:30 pm in the Black Box Theater! Grab a beverage in the lobby and come on down for an evening of zany comedy. Free and open to the public, $10 suggested donation.
View the Platter Project in person and participate in our silent auction! This display features ceramic platters crafted by local artists, kicking off The Souper Bowl, our annual Lawrence Arts Center fundraiser. Proceeds benefit the Adult Education Program and Ceramics Studio, supporting community art initiatives.
Kale Stewart | The Dance of Glass
The Dance of Glass is a collaboration between glass artists Kale Stewart and Roberta Eichenberg. The works featured in this exhibition capture the fluid movement, coordinating motions, and whimsical elegance that similarly happens within dance and, also the place where these forms were made, the glass hot shop.
Mike Brehm creates drawings using traditional materials: paper, wax pastels, ink, graphite, and colored pencils. His imagery originates in his sketchbooks where he practices automatic drawing. The immediate results are frenzied and abstract. He develops images from this raw psychological palette, bringing out forms from the jumble of chaotic marks. These drawings are further refined and become a basis for his larger works.
Through his drawings and technique, Mike strives to uncover prophetic, misremembered, and poetic moments. These are the prizes of the automatic drawing process and they arise without intention and reveal themselves to him at a later date.
Jeremy Rockwell presents recent mixed media works, sculptures, and collaborations. His work is inspired by found objects, readily available construction materials, and exploring the PROCE55.
Much of Rockwell’s work is driven by the manipulation of things that are cast off by others–leftover construction materials, recycled computer parts, and other found objects are the basis of the multi-medium works he creates. The conversation between classical technique and modern technology plays an important role in his creative process.
