Participation and improvisation are the key concepts in Abraham Cruzvillegas’s new AAM exhibition Hi, how are you, Gonzo?

The artist and the AAM are asking local participants to activate our galleries with imaginative events and performances that emphasize community, inclusiveness, learning, play, and exchange.

Join us Wednesday, October 23, any time between 5–7 p.m. (Gallery 5), for an open brainstorming session and let us know how you would enliven the exhibition during the show.

No appointments necessary. Free refreshments served. All ideas welcome. Gonzo ideas encouraged.
