ROBERTO LUGO Ghetto Garniture: Wu Tang Worcester through October 12


In this solo installation, Lugo explores eclecticism and culture by
juxtaposing street graffiti, European decorative patterning, and rich
symbolism drawn from his Puerto Rican heritage. He creates a hybrid of
visual art traditions and stimulates new conversations around cultural
tolerance. The show features Lugo’s work created during his artist
residency at Project Art.

Open daily in Aug 11–5, fall 11–5 Wed–Sun.

The Cup Collaboration – Exhibition and Online Event

A.Christianson

“A handmade cup forever retains the
touch of its maker. The daily ritual of choosing a cup is one that many
of us enjoy. This group exhibition brings together 34  Australian, and
International ‘clay’ sisters and brothers. The participants have been
carefully matched and asked to collaborate to produce two cups together,
and one of their own, for this exciting event.”
