OPENING RECEPTION / "Passage" By Renata Cassiano Alvarez

2025 Visiting Artist in Residence Renata Cassiano Alvarez will debut a newly commissioned sculpture entitled Passage, consisting of four 8-foot interconnected metal archways clad in hundreds of tiles and mosaic. Many of these tiles were painted by members of the St. Louis community during a series of workshops held in the spring and early summer.

Saturday August 23 / 11 a.m. – 1 p.m.
a talk between the artist and curator will be held at the sculpture at noon.
