After the 6pm artist talk with Ellen Harvey in the USF School of Music's Barness Hall, please join us at 7pm for an exhibition reception at CAM celebrating PICTURE(SQUE): Ellen Harvey Works, 1999-2025. This exhibition presents four major bodies of work by the celebrated Anglo-American artist that honor and question ideas around travel, memory, monuments and history making. Harvey’s artworks memorialize lost places and interrogate existing ones; additionally, they turn a warm eye toward human beings’ relationships with their lived environment, while asking us to envision new ways of being in the future.

Kostar is bringing their unique style of artwork bursting with Florida-centric vibes to Bayboro Brewing, showing original artwork from the book, as well as playful, vibrant, original artwork that celebrates Florida and the creatures that dwell here. Viewers will have the opportunity to own a piece of the book illustration, laid out as massive storyboard wall, purchase a signed hardback copy of “Where the Florida Things Live”, enjoy an exhibit filled with other original artworks including fresh pieces never shown before and created specifically for the show.

Hope to see you there!
