Textures of Being
This exhibition brings together artists whose practices honor the body—its sensitivities and its wisdom—as a site of deep creative knowledge. Rooted in materiality and lived experience, Textures of Being reimagines disability as a distinct, intimate lens through which the world is encountered, shaped, and perceived.
Featured Event
10.24.26 - 10.24.26
Textures of Being Community Forum
An intimate, daylong program presented in collaboration with Anthropology of Motherhood. Centered on disability, accessibility, the body, and artistic practice, the forum brings together artists, advocates, and cultural leaders to consider how access shapes the ways we communicate, create, organize, and participate in community life.
Contemporary Craft fosters the use of traditional craft materials such as ceramic, fiber, glass, metal and wood to make art. Our community honors the history and heritage of craft, while showcasing modern, exploratory work.
