During an eclipse, our perception of light is temporarily skewed. What should be day seems like night and we feel as though we are in an alternate reality. Play with light in relation to art during the Arts Council’s "Red Light Paint Night"! Gallery lighting will be altered to be red. With no other light source, artists won't be able to discern what colors are on their paint palettes!
Enjoy live music and light refreshments.
Friends at Gorgeousware Boutique will also be creating custom eclipse tees in studio for a T-Shirt Takeout experience.
