SUMMARY:Liminal Spaces: The Masks We Wear
DESCRIPTION:Join the Arts Lab at the opening of Liminal Spaces: The Masks We Wear as we shed our masks and enjoy the expression of art and community \nThe Words on the Third’s Poetry Group and the Arts Lab of South County present Liminal spaces- a collection of poetry infused art.Liminal spaces is keeping with their usual concept of communities coming together to see where creative ideas overlap\, but this year we are all working with one theme. We are reflecting on the masks we wear when we navigate a world of uncertainty and tension. The variety of the work that is emerging is thought provoking and visually compelling.
