MORE ABOUT THE BIG NEWSAt The Chase Gallery Nov 1 – Dec 20
The Chase Gallery at Spokane’s City Hall is thrilled to announce the opening of a new exhibit, Wonder of Structure: Explorations of Science, Architecture, and Abstraction. This exhibit, hosted by Spokane Arts, invites viewers to explore the dynamic intersections of science, architecture, and abstraction through the works of four distinguished local artists: Lynn Hanley, Laura Kaschmitter, Seth Collier, and Tarra Hall.
The public is invited to an artists’ reception as part of Spokane’s popular First Friday art celebration on Friday, November 1, from 5:00 to 8:00 pm at the Chase Gallery, located at 808 W Spokane Falls Blvd, Spokane, WA 99201. The reception provides an opportunity to meet the artists, gain insights into their inspirations, and enjoy an evening of community and culture. Light refreshments will be served.
Wonder of Structure showcases diverse artistic explorations that celebrate and challenge our understanding of form, material, and space. Each artist presents a unique perspective on how science, architecture, and abstraction can shape and inspire art.
The exhibit is open to the public through December 20, with viewing hours Monday through Friday from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm. Admission is free, making this a must-see destination for anyone interested in the fusion of art and structure.
