PLYMOUTH CENTER FOR THE ARTS: A Different Vision 2013: A Tactile Art Show
Many people react with an expression of polite confusion when they
hear about an art exhibit for people who cannot see.
Yet the call for art has gone out to both sighted and non-sighted
artists all over the commonwealth -- to local high schools, art schools,
schools for the blind, craft schools, art associations, councils on
aging, veterans' programs, colleges, galleries, academies, museums and
to 1,300 individual artists.
We're looking for art that can be touched.
We're looking for sculpture and pottery and weaving and paintings with
texture.
We're looking for art that smells and art that makes sounds and music.
At the Plymouth Center for the Arts, the Plymouth Guild is hosting a
show for everyone -- for blind, partially sighted and sighted artists
and visitors.
.....
Go to the show and /see/ for yourself. And, please, touch the art!
Register your artwork from noon to 3 p.m. Saturday and Sunday, April 27
and 28, at Plymouth Center for the Arts.
The Opening Night Reception will be held at 7 p.m. Saturday, May 11, and
the exhibit will run from May 12 to June 1. Regular Center hours will be
extended till 8 each Thursday and Friday evening during the entire run
of this show.
