CVAG presents ROOT LOVE – its convergent thematic Winter Program 2019. The community is invited to view the “live window” exhibition; participate in a community plant exchange station in the Community Gallery lobby; enter the George Sawchuck Gallery to be immersed in the installation, Physica by Clea Minaker; and browse an extensive selection of well-made-things featured in the 45 Annual Winter Market.
During the winter program, the gallery will host incubator projects that will be based in GATHER:PLACE. Connie Michele Morey will visit from November 27 to December 11, 2019. Artists will be housed in the CVAG Next Door artist residence and will conduct site-specific creative research in GATHER:PLACE, on the gallery plaza and throughout the community.CVAG will also host a Community Make Art Project Event + Solstice Celebration on Friday December 20th from 12–9pm.
The gallery will be extending its hours during the run of the program to offer the community a variety of opportunities to visit the market, participate in the plant exchange, view the installations and interact with artists in residence.
