Second Thursday Art Night: Sharpen your pencils

September 10, 2015 @ 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm

Enjoy an special after-hours event at the Torpedo Factory Art Center every month. Browse open studios and galleries, interact with artists, and enjoy special programming. Stop by on your way to dinner and make an evening of it!

A blank notebook is full of creative potential waiting to be explored. Whether you’re in school or just love all of the back-to-school stationary, the September Second Thursday Art Night is for you. Decorate an art journal of your own and leave a sketch in the six notebooks scattered around the building for a community sketching project.

Target Gallery celebrates the opening for Angel Soldier Dance Sublime, which features the work of four women artists exploring the sublime dance of archetypal masculinity and femininity. The curator talk begins at 7 pm. Down the hall, The Art League celebrates openings for The Ring of Fire, which features Wijati Soemantoro’s abstract lithographs that respond to the energy, emotions, and aftermath of natural disasters. Also, the September all-media exhibition features juried work by The Art League members. Comments begin at 7:30 pm.

Come early and stay late to enjoy the warm acoustic guitar and foot-stomping rhythm of Casey Clark. His storytelling and alternative country sound will pull you right in.
