Public Reception for the Wind Fellowship Exhibition at The InLiquid Gallery, Thursday, February 9 from 6 - 9 PM.

"The Wind Fellowship showcases the stunning contemporary work of artists from diverse backgrounds, bringing them into vivid communication with one another. By exploring these themes through mediums which range from paint and murals to prints and sculpture, the Wind Fellow recipients collectively push the boundaries of medium and message, creating a nuanced platform to ask questions about ourselves and the places we inhabit. Wind Fellows are featured in a group exhibition at the InLiquid Gallery, receive one year of artist membership at InLiquid, as well as marketing, career services, and more. As a catalyst for artistic professionals, the Wind Fellowship creates unique opportunities for artists looking to make connections and build a strong foundation for their burgeoning careers."
