InLight 2024: Grounds for Clearing
November 8-9, 2024, 7-11pm
Pine Camp Cultural Arts and Community Center
InLight 2024: Grounds for Clearing, its 17th annual exhibition, will transform the grounds of Pine Camp Cultural Arts and Community Center.
Curated by Tiffany E. Barber and Nicole Pollard, artworks will engage and expand upon the histories of Pine Camp and its current activities and uses. These include ideas around healing, reflection, isolation, meditation, convening with nature, the park’s environmental and ecological life, and a place for community to gather, play, and connect.
Key moments in Pine Camp’s history include producing food for city institutions as agricultural land, and serving as an isolation ward for those with highly contagious diseases including the establishment of a whites-only Tuberculosis hospital and a separate Black infirmary. Today, Pine Camp is a multidisciplinary, multicultural community space that offers a theater, visual arts and dance studios, basketball courts, a playground, walking and biking trails, nature reserves, and public art.
