In 2022, the Arts Council launched a Pop-up event and exhibition space at the Armory Building for local BIPOC artists. The goal was to support programming, provide temporary space, and funds to this community of artists. This initiative aims to provide a safe, vibrant, and free space to be curated by artists of color. The pop-up location features variety of spaces: a common room where there are new exhibitions on a rotational basis and a larger room that can be reserved for small events, lectures, workshops, and any programming that serves the local BIPOC arts community. In the past 1.5 years this space has served over 15 groups or artists. Funds are provided depending on the programming and availability of funds. More information on the BIPOC space can be found here. There is an application and interview process. |
