Near Dark: Black Light Art Showcase
Friday June 12th 7:00PM - 11:00PM
Saturday June 13th 7:00PM - 10:00PM
FREE SHOW // ALL AGES WELCOME!
Our 7th annual Black Light Art Showcase!
Join us on Friday June 12th as we host our most unique presentation of the year- an art show featuring local artists creating work that will ALL GLOW under the black lights!
This will be the 7th time we present this showcase and it still amazes me to watch the artwork and the gallery space transform! You HAVE to see it in person to really experience it!
We'll dark out any hallway lights, kill the house lights, and replace them with black lights to create a unique experience unlike any art show you've ever seen!
Guests are encouraged to wear neon colors and we'll have highlighters on hand if you want to bedazzle yourself and get REACTIVE!!
As always, we'll have free booze on hand courtesy of Eureka Heights Brew Co, Bad Astronaut Brewing, 8th Wonder Brewing and ciders from City Orchard! Infused beverages from Sip Howdy and 8th Wonder! Cocktails and wine available as well!
Participating Artists List TBA
This is going to be an awesome show- art, music, movies, drinks, and chill vibes. Food by Umbrella Fellas.
We'll have a second viewing on Saturday the 13th, 7pm-10pm. We almost never do two-day shows but this one is worth it!
