Experience This Live performance in the Charles H. Scott Gallery

Join us at the Charles H. Scott Gallery to mark the end of Like a Rolling Stone: An Exhibition About Rock and Rock with a performance by Experience This.

Experience This is a three-piece blues band, featuring Laura Piasta, an artist participating in Like a Rolling Stone, along with members Jen Smyth and Johan Björck. In addition to the performance, Vancouver-based artist, Katrina Niebergal will DJ.

Like a Rolling Stone conflates geology and rock music, it considers the ways in which two seemingly unrelated subjects linked by the same homograph share associations and points of contact that are both concrete and implied.
