Opening Reception
Thursday, March 8, 6 - 8:30pm

Renowned for staging emerging artist solo shows in the space of the Project Room, we are investigating how the project functions, opening up the programming to artists at different points in their careers, transferring work currently in their studios to the space of the gallery without the pressures of curatorial parameters.
