Critical Transformations: A Forum on New Futures | Do it Yourself
Join us for a roundtable talk on founding and operating contemporary art venues as part of Critical Transformations: A Forum on New Futures
This event assembles a group of directors of West Coast independent art spaces to reflect on their experience founding and/or managing small, experimental, community-building and utopian venues for contemporary art. What alternative models do these venues provide? How is their approach indicative of the future of arts organizing?
