TANNERY SPOTLIGHT: PUBLIC ART BY SARAH BORGESON & BRYAN ARGABRITE
|
|
|
Have you seen the latest public art pieces at the Tannery? We recently welcomed two new installations by local artists. Bryan Argabrite, known for his Burning Man sculptures, created an installation for the fencing along River Street. Tannery artist and jewelry designer Sarah Borgeson installed her piece in the street-facing windows of Studio 119.
We caught up with the artists to learn more about their work and the inspiration behind their pieces here at the Tannery. Don't miss the special First Friday reception at Studio 119 for the unveiling of the installations!
