Please join MARN for the Opening Reception of the 2023-2024 MARNmentorship Exhibition on April 5th from 5-8pm. The exhibition celebrates the mentors and mentees in the MARNmentorship Program and will be on view from April 5, 2024-May 26, 2024 with corresponding programming throughout the run of the show.
We invite the community to come get to know the featured artists of the MARNmentorship Program and enjoy specialty cocktails from the MARN cafe!
“The 2023-2024 MARNmentorship exhibition is a dynamic showcase featuring a cohort of visionary interdisciplinary artists whose works transcend conventional boundaries to delve into the multifaceted dimensions of our existence. This exhibition serves as a collective exploration, offering a rich variety of perspectives on themes that define and shape our contemporary human experience.
In this diverse assembly of artists, each creator acts as a storyteller, weaving narratives that resonate with the essence of identity and existence. At the heart of these works is an unwavering curiosity about our surrounding world and environment. Through their unique modes of creation, the artists interrogate, interpret, and celebrate the intricacies of the spaces we inhabit, fostering a deepened awareness of the symbiotic relationships we share with the world and those around us.
Each piece is an intimate journey into the exploration of connections—both personal and communal. The works on view serve as both a mirror and a lens, allowing us to process, question, and challenge the constructs that shape our societies and individual lives. It is an affirmation that art is not merely a reflection of our world; it is a catalyst for shaping the world we aspire to inhabit.”
