Just a few more days to see “Converse” at the IU Northwest Gallery for Contemporary Art.
I recently had the privilege of curating an exhibition for Indiana University Northwest’s Gallery for Contemporary Art entitled Converse. It features work by Chicago artist Amber Ginsburg with works in collaboration with Aaron Hughes and Joseph Madrigal. During the course of the exhibition Amber offered wonderful artists talks and Tea Performances in conjunction with the works on exhibit.
The last day to view Converse will be Tuesday, December 16 until 7:00 pm. Visit the gallery website for more info.
