Second Saturdays Are for Families
Electrify your art! Use circuits to transform a graphite drawing into light and sound. Check out guest artist Adam Hilton’s Moving Sound, an interactive fusion of touch, light, and sound. Inspired by Carl Cheng: Nature Never Loses, on view at The Jones Center between September 6 and December 8, the whole family is invited to explore the connection between art and technology.
Join us on the second Saturday of every month for a fun and creative art-making experience at The Contemporary Austin!
