American Gun Show
An exhibition of artistic responses at the intersections of free speech, personal liberty, and national identity. Curators James Morgan and Dorothy Santos explore the art and technology of guns with an objective focus to provide a much needed dialogue around an object rife with cultural, social, and political meaning.
Opening Reception: Friday, October 2, 7-10pm with First Friday art walk
Public Discussion with the curators, 7pm Friday, October 23
An open dialogue facilitated by Lisa D. Walker. Admission free.
