📣📣📣ANNOUNCEMENT: In recent weeks, NOPA volunteers and board members have noticed some rapid acceleration in structural damage to the ceiling and an interior beam of the building NOPA rents for the gallery space. Out of an abundance of caution, the Board has made the difficult decision to temporarily close the center at 7800 Oak St. Programming - including meetings, workshops and exhibitions will continue through the summer, at satellite locations to be announced.
We are in communication with the building’s owner to determine the feasibility of repair plans, and will share that timeline as soon as we can. (The culprit is termites, and the constant rain has certainly not helped the situation.)
Please see the programming changes below
1️⃣ The June first Tuesday talk, originally scheduled June 2 from 6-7pm will be postponed. We will announce a new date in the upcoming weeks.
2️⃣ June 10! Please join us for the opening of our upcoming exhibition, Light on Cut Paper. The opening and show will now be at The Art Spot ._, on 2011 Magazine St. For the third year in a row, we are collaborating with Kolaj Institute to bring this exhibition to the NOPA community during Kolaj Fest!
