“A Space Between” Exhibit Opening Day

Fri, August 5, 2022 @ 12:00 pm - 9:00 pm EDT

A Space Between Art Exhibit
August 5-27, 2022

The A Space Between art exhibit at Del Ray Artisans gallery focuses on shadows, negative space, and often overlooked components of a scene. After two years separated by literally six feet—and many centuries of burying loved ones six feet under—the concept of space gave artists a chance to explore themes of isolation beyond the physical separations of our shared experience.

Join us on opening day, Friday, August 5 between 12-9pm for the widest selection of artwork. Mark your calendar or set a reminder through Eventbrite. The artworks feature the shadows cast on subjects and the negative spaces revealing previously unseen images to help us visualize empathy and compassion for seeing the same thing differently.

Fitting beautifully into the space during the exhibit are several workshops, including:
