In a fast-paced format, a selection of work by local visual and performing artists will be projected on the big screen, set to a soundtrack of musical accompaniment. Live dance, music, poetry, and spoken word performances will be interspersed between segments of the show. Artists of all mediums and genres will show their work, ranging from the very accomplished to the up and coming. The Art Slam is a place for artists and art enthusiasts to gather and share their work in a non-competitive atmosphere. The event is meant to be a fun, relaxed and inspiring evening, reminding us why we create art in the first place. Join us for a reception in the Rialto lobby following the event, allowing community members an opportunity to mingle.
