Downtown will glow from the light of illuminated art works from 6-9 p.m. Friday, Nov. 6, during the First Friday gallery crawl.
鈥淕et Lit: A Night of Light鈥� is a collaboration between 成人头条 State鈥檚 ShiftSpace Gallery and 成人头条 Festivals Inc. The event will take place near the gallery鈥檚 location at Groover Labs, 334 St. Francis Ave.
ShiftSpace invites WSU students and community members to build an inflatable bubble using simple materials and step-by-step instructions provided by guest artist Kylie Brown, creator of the MULTIBUBBLE project.
鈥淲hen we started to think about ways of safely coming together as a community, building literal bubbles made a lot of sense,鈥� said Kristin Beal, ShiftSpace gallery manager. 鈥淭he pandemic has changed our typical patterns of behavior, but we can still celebrate the power of art, which is open to everyone.鈥�
Up to 20 free MULTIBUBBLE kits are available to WSU students. They include plastic sheeting, tape, velcro, and a loaner fan courtesy of Vornado. Community members may also join but will have to purchase their own materials at a cost of about $60. All participants can register and find more information at .
