CARE: Givers and Receivers delves into the profound relationship between those who provide care and those who receive it, using the rich textures and layered narratives of mixed media, fiber, and installation art. The artists employing these innovative materials create works that reflect the emotional and physical labor involved in caring relationships. The exhibition highlights the delicate balance and interconnectedness between givers and receivers. CARE goes beyond personal relationships, including the evolving attitudes and opinions in contemporary society, looking at current events and social shifts within the concept of care. Through these tactile and evocative pieces, the exhibition invites viewers to reflect on the deep significance of care, highlighting our personal journeys and the urgent need to care for all people and the planet.

Panel Discussion: 5:00 – 6:00 PM ($20 general admission | $10 for SPAACES members, includes light refreshments).
Join SPAACES for a special panel discussion featuring visual artists and authors exploring the theme of "care." This engaging conversation will examine the relationship between caregivers and receivers, offering diverse perspectives from creatives working across multiple disciplines. This panel provides a unique opportunity for artists and writers to discuss their work in relation to the emotional and physical labor of caregiving - both on an individual level and within the broader national landscape. The conversation will also address social and cultural shifts shaping our understanding of care today - how it manifests in personal relationships, communities, and global concerns, including the urgent need to care for both people and the planet. The discussion will take place just before the official opening of the CARE: Givers and Receivers exhibition.

Speakers: Samo Davis, Marika Lindholm, Guillermo Vidal, Amanda Walters.
