Sound of Water Opening Reception
June 20 @ 5:00 pm - 7:00 pm
Free
Join us at the Sturt Haaga Gallery for the opening reception of the exhibition Sound of Water: Feminine Expressions of Fluidity.
Meet the artists and curator Meher McArthur, and enjoy music and a no-host bar.
Sound of Water explores water’s many moods and manifestations in contemporary Japanese art.
From feminine, soft and serene, to powerful and unpredictable, this exhibition invites us to consider our own relationship with this essential element as we face climatic extremes throughout the world.
Opening reception and garden admission are free from 5–7pm on June 20, no event registration required.
