Art Hang: Make Art + Potluck

Presented by The Carrack & Art Ain’t Innocent

All artists and art-loving community members are welcome! Come share space, meet other artists, exchange ideas, make some art and posters, share food and connect. The Carrack will be an empty gallery space where we will have the ability to create new work and brainstorm ideas. Starting at 3pm come join us in collective conversation and connection. We’ll end the evening with a potluck gathering that will go until at least 8pm, possibly later. Come for all or part of the time and invite your friends and fellow artists!
