For over two decades we have gathered to celebrate art, culture, community, and delicious food, with every ticket bought going directly to support our free community arts programs. To help us reach our goal while continuing our focus on our community’s collective health, our 2021 Art to Dine For events will be held outside, virtually, or in small host-led private parties.
Regeneration and Resiliencia | Opening Receptions
Tuesday, August 17 • 6-8pm | Ongoing through October 2
@ Howard County Center for the Arts
On August 21, the Howard County Arts Council (HCAC) opens two new exhibits at the Howard County Center for the Arts: Regeneration and Resiliencia.
Regeneration features large-scale mixed-media sculptures and installations by Marcia Wolfson Ray and Micaela de Vivero. Ray collects wood from local environments to explore concepts of regeneration and the ways that humans are connected, while de Vivero uses soft, malleable, and porous materials to create installations investigating the relationship between viewers and space.
Resiliencia showcases works by Julia Justo, Dulce Pinzón, and Christine Sloan Stoddard. These artists use interdisciplinary methods to explore social and political concepts through photography, mixed-media, film, and installation.
Both exhibits will be on display from August 21 through October 2, with a free public reception on September 17 from 6-8pm in conjunction with the Arts Council’s Road to the Arts weekend.
Current gallery hours are Tuesday-Thursday from 10am-8pm and Saturday from 10am-4pm. NOTE: Gallery hours may be expanded or reduced in response to evolving local public health guidelines and restrictions; please call 410-313-ARTS (2787) or visit hocoarts.org to verify hours before visiting.
