VOTE!

About

As we approach the
national election of 2020, there is no more pressing work than the work of
civic engagement. VOTE!, a word that is a directive, an action, and an
object, seeks to throw open the doors of Northern Clay Center and to rethink
the role that a gallery traditionally serves. This exhibition will showcase
artists who engage with questions of politics, citizenry, and activism
through multiple lenses. We will also serve as a real and physical site for
local organizations to host voter registration drives, voter information
meetings, and (now virtual) town halls. This exhibition will unite the
engaged act of looking with that of our public life, and will stretch the
boundaries of the gallery with posters, buttons, and voters in motion. Part
gallery, part voter registration and information center, this exhibition will
not just explore but will also actualize the role of art and crafts in
empowering participants in democracy.

Guest artists include Ann Agee, Amber Ginsburg, Kris Grey, and Ryan W.
Kelly.
