YSAC’s first Experience Saturday event of 2013 is on March 9 (6-9pm), kicking off Spring Into The Arts – Experience Peace. We will begin the evening with a “Free Art Friday Movement” talk and slide show led by Corrine Bayraktaroglu, who will explore this international movement.
Following the art talk, the Curious Sound (Kyleen Downes, Theresa Snider & Emma Woodruff) will perform their unique mix of “folk, rock & awesome” at 7:00pm. A suggested donation for the evening is $5.
The Free Art Friday Movement is about artwork being placed in public places for anyone to enjoy or take. The joy is that there are no rules. For the artist, it is an opportunity to create work free from the constraints of commerce, to voice an idea, shout a political message or just amuse and confuse the viewer. Art is so often tied to a need by the artist to ‘make a living’ and constrained by gallery and dealer issues. The “Free Art” movement focuses the artist on the act itself, giving complete artistic freedom. How many things do you know that are completely free, no strings attached?
Come to this closing event of our member’s show, “Art for Change”, for a last look at this popular show, exciting dialog, and rockin’ music. Envision positive change for yourself, your community and your world. The YSAC Community Gallery is open from Wednesday to Sunday (1-4pm), except for the third week of each month.
