The Kalamazoo Institute of Arts and Glass Art Kalamazoo are teaming up to put on a special event showcasing glass artwork made by Michigan artists while providing the opportunity to craft.
The Clearly Indigenous Artists’ Exchange and Hands-On Exploration is a daylong celebration of the KIA’s exhibition, Clearly Indigenous: Native Visions of Reimagined in Glass.
From 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., the morning session will take place at the Kalamazoo Institute of Arts and will include a keynote address and gallery walkthrough with Dr. Letitia Chambers, artists’ talks by Friday and Lujan, and a panel discussion led by Rehema Barber, Director of Curatorial Affairs at the Kalamazoo Institute of Arts.
Then from 3 to 6 p.m., head to Glass Art Kalamazoo for a live demonstration by Dan Friday and Carol Lujan, as well as a hands-on fused glass project led by GAK staff.
Guests ages 8 and up are welcome to participate in the fused glass project.
