Please join artist Alison Ruttan and curator and writer Shannon Stratton for a conversation about politically engaged art and craft.
About this Event

Ruttan's exhibition is made up of over 160 individually cast ceramic sculptures that fill the 2300 sq ft gallery, making this an ambitiously large installation in ceramics. This conversation will place the exhibition in dialogue with a wider movement of artists who make work that is politically engaged and environmentally conscious.
