You're invited to Empire Waste at the Peabody Essex Museum!

Please join AFH's Artist Fellowship for their unique response piece to Andrew Gn's exhibition at the Peabody Essex Museum. You'll hear from all five Fellows as they reflect on their artistic process based in sustainable art practices. Learn about how Empire Waste dismantles the empire of wasteful items and plays off Gn's themes of heirlooms and nature, while challenging us to consider what we are collectively passing down to future generations.

This will also be the rare opportunity to see the pieces up close and meet the artists. Artist talk and museum entrance is free. RSVP by August 25 here [link]!
