Come join us for an evening of dialog about Walking Underground: what it means to three artists’ creative process and how their stories are inseparable from their visual art. This symposium will highlight a sample of each artist’s journey from blank canvas to a completed artwork incorporating the seen and unseen realities along the continuum of expression.
