🖼✍️🏾Reposted from @studiomuseum On Saturday, March 21 from 12:00 to 7:00 pm, join us for an afternoon celebration commemorating the closing weekend of “Tom Lloyd”.⁠

⁠

Discussions and activations throughout the building will invite visitors to immerse themselves in Tom Lloyd’s experimental light sculptures; peel back the layers of his artistic practice; and delve into the impact of his advocacy for artists of color at the Arts Workers Coalition, the Store Front Museum, and beyond.⁠

⁠

“On Visibility,” a discussion exploring the reverberations of Tom Lloyd’s practice across disciplines and the artist’s advocacy for artists of color with the Arts Workers Coalition, the Store Front Museum, and more.

⁠

Hear from Emily Verla Bovino (@nimble_love_ivory), Habiba Hopson (@hab_hop), and Krista Thompson as they speak with Curator Connie H. Choi (@conniehchoi) on Lloyd’s search for visibility beyond the presence of light, 5:30 pm to 7:00 pm.

Free with Museum admission.⁠ Capacity is limited.⁠ Reserve your tickets here: www.studiomuseum.org/events/a-celebration-of-tom-lloyd
