You're Invited: Art for Social Impact Event this Friday!

Art for Social Impact: a panel discussion with artists Michael Nye, Caleb Kenna, Dan Higgins, and Bess O’Brien

Friday, March 25th, 5-7:30
BCA Center (formerly the Firehouse Gallery)
2nd Floor (Church Street, Burlington)

Thanks to the generosity of Burlington City Arts and the Board of Directors of Hunger Free Vermont, we are thrilled to present Art for Social Impact.

Texas-based photographer Michael Nye’s exhibit About Hunger and Resilience—brought to the UVM Davis Center by Hunger Free Vermont and the Vermont Foodbank—will open on March 27th.

In anticipation of the exhibition, local filmmaker Bess O’Brien and local photographers Dan Higgins and Caleb Kenna will join Nye to discuss how art can affect deep and lasting social change. Fran Stoddard of Vermont Public Television will facilitate the panel for this event that is free and open to the public.

Hors d'oeuvres and refreshments provided.
