Porch Party

 Friday, July 4th, the Harrison Center for the Arts and City Gallery with Urban Times and Indianapolis Downtown, Inc. invite you to come hang out on our porch! Gather with friends on the “porch” of the City Gallery, then come inside and check out the group show, “Porch Party” including work (maybe a porch swing or two) by Matthew Osborn, Kyle Ragsdale, Nathan Foxton and Elyce Elder. City Gallery is encouraging you to follow our lead and have your own porch party on Sunday, July 13th. More information at: https://www.facebook.com/events/504642636327886/. The Harrison Gallery hosts an other-worldly exhibit of paintings and sculpture by Bobby Gilbreath. This body of work explores the atmosphere and life forms on the planet, Flora, “a discovered planet teeming with life.”  In Hank & Dolly’s Gallery – Silent Strength – Yasmine Kasem’s work is centered around her cultural ties to the Middle East and the US, the similarities in the issues they share concerning women and how they are viewed by each culture.  At 8pm in the gym, Brooklyn-based artist Blake Carrington premieres a new audio/visual performance piece created during a one week HCA residency. The work hangs through July 25th. With support from: Urban Times, Indianapolis Downtown, Inc., ArtPlace America, the Arts Council of Indianapolis, the Indiana Arts Commission, INHP, Christel DeHaan Family Foundation, Allen Whitehill Clowes Foundation, the Indianapolis Foundation, Sun King Brewery and Amy McAdams Design.
