Event Information

Description

Join us for February’s First Friday at Mainframe Studios, a vibrant evening celebrating art, creativity and community. This month’s featured exhibition, EMBODIED, curated by Lydia Nong, is a multimedia exploration of the human figure as a powerful tool for storytelling. Featuring artists who use the body as their primary language, the exhibition reveals how posture, gesture and form convey emotion, identity, and lived experience. Rather than serving solely as subject, the body becomes the narrator — inviting viewers to reflect on what it means to be human, seen and felt. The Evening’s Highlights: 

• Interactive Art: Join Brittany Brooke Crow for a live figure drawing activity
• Music: Enjoy chamber music by Quartet 515.
• Food & Drink: Delicious offerings from Tangerine Food Co, Reyes Tamales, Mama Africa, LeeTy Delights and Not Your Average Bar.
• Open Studios: Explore five floors of workspaces, connect with local artists and see new work in progress.

First Friday events are family-friendly, free, and open to the public. With expanded overflow parking and a complimentary shuttle service, getting here is easy. Don’t miss this dynamic celebration of art and expression! First Friday events at Mainframe Studios are family-friendly, free and open to the public.
