Join us for an in-person presentation about the archive at Clay Art Center, presented by Kelsie Dalton, curator of the current exhibition Finding The Center and archivist. The event takes place on Tuesday, May 19th from 5:00-6:00pm at the Clay Art Center Gallery.
Archival materials - the letters, photographs, brochures, ticket stubs, and other odds and ends that form a record of existence - provide a window into the world of the past. With nearly 70 years of history, the Clay Art Center archives are rich in documentation of the people and ideas that have laid the foundation of our community. This presentation will give an overview of materials in the archive, dig into some of the unique records that informed Finding The Center, take a look at other rarely-scene materials, and dive deeper into the history of Clay Art Center.
This presentation is free and open to the public, and guests are encouraged to come early to view Finding The Center in the Gallery.
