Bruce Cohn - “45s at a Party”, Composite Digital Print
REMEMBER?
A Juried Photography Exhibition
February 24th - March 30th, 2024
opening reception Saturday, February 24th 6-8PM
You just heard a song from years ago and remember where you were and who you were with. You’re transported to a previous time and all that it evokes – nostalgia, melancholy, joy. We asked artists to mine their work for something that transports us back. Something that tells us what was, or what could have been. In honor of this theme, artists were permitted to submit work that was old or new.
