🌟NEW OPENING ART RECEPTION🌟

Please join us for our opening reception for our new exhibition, Color Your World, this Friday February 27th at 5:30 here at Overt Space!

This exhibition is extra special as we have partnered with ArtWorking, a non-profit that supports artists and entrepreneurs with intellectual and developmental disabilities. We have 19 artists in this show and we are excited to share their art! We will have light refreshments and you will be able to meet with some of the artists and hear them speak about their work.

It will be a wonderful night full of art and community!
We can't wait to share this exhibition with you!

ArtWorking is excited to announce that we will be included in the first wave of merchants at the forthcoming Madison Public Market. We are thrilled to be included in this significant new chapter in Madison’s creative and cultural landscapes. For our part, we will be operating a vending machine located in the Public Market’s First Street Art Gallery, which will be accessible any of the hours that the market is open. This opportunity will allow us to showcase all 45 ArtWorking artists in this preeminent community location, and will allow our artists to be more widely seen and celebrated within Madison’s creative landscape. The soft opening of the Market is scheduled for March. Stay tuned for updates on the official grand opening dates!
