#ArtBar! Bringing community together for laughter and libations through art. Join us at the Open Door Gallery for a early evening/post-work event full of art making, socializing, laughter and libations! This ArtWeek Boston event is hosted collaboratively by VSA Massachusetts and Arts Connect International.
ARTISTIC EXPERIENCE NOT REQUIRED ~ just an open mind and a good sense of humor, both of which will take you a long way. People of all ages and abilities are welcome (email to RSVP@vsamass.org with requests for ASL or other accommodations). What's not to love about friends, laughter, art and community? There will be a super artsy after party announced following the event as well, so stay tuned and join us at a local restaurant for continued fun (21+ for this part!).

The Albin Polasek Museum & Sculpture Gardens is now accepting submissions for the 2015 – 2016 Exhibition "Sight Unseen: Touchable Sculpture".
Sight Unseen is a sculpture exhibit based around the concept of touchable, hands-on, 3-Dimensional art. Selected works must be made to safely withstand visitor touching and encourage interaction. Blind and vision-impaired individuals will be invited to participate. Blindfolds will be available for visitors to use to experience your art with heightened sensory awareness, so please keep that in mind as you create your concept. Selection will be based on the artists’ aesthetics as well as their ability to embrace the theme. Make the audience want to touch your art!
Exhibition Runs Tuesday, December 7, 2015 – Sunday, April 17, 2016.
The deadline for entry will be 5:00 PM EST on Friday, September 18, 2015.
Visit the museum website for full details.
