Deana Haggag, director of The Contemporary, will lead Art Seminar Group on a private gallery tour of Station North along E. Oliver Street, including well-established venues like Gallery CA and Area 405, and some new faces to the neighborhood like Open Works. These galleries are a part of a broader network of art spaces in Station North that participate in Alloverstreet.
Alloverstreet: East Oliver Street Art Walk is a monthly night of simultaneous art openings and events spanning the many spaces across Station North. The event hosts hundreds of visitors for free performances and exhibitions on the first Friday of every month on E. Oliver Street.
In addition to the private tour, ASG has the opportunity to meet with Jose Ruiz, the new director of MICA’s MFA in Curatorial Practice, learn about the program, and tour the Riggs and Leidy Galleries in the Lazarus Center.
