Off the Wall: From Canvas to Conversation is a seasonal artist talk series that brings the community face-to-face with visual storytellers and cultural voices shaping our world. While many featured speakers are drawn from current exhibitions in the Marshall Family Foundation Gallery and Black Box Gallery, the series also welcomes guest artists, curators, and thought leaders whose practices align with exhibition themes.Each event transforms the gallery into a space for open dialogue—connecting art, ideas, and people through storytelling. The series underscores Arts Garage’s commitment to celebrating identity, creativity, and cultural dialogue, offering visitors a chance to “take the conversation off the wall” and into their daily lives.
