Interact with artists at the Ballroom on the 4th floor of The Temple for the Performing Arts, downtown.
Summer nights are so precious on the no coast, but too often, we let them slip into the din of our chaotic lives. Skip the screen time. Invest in summer and spend your night with art and music.
In a society that prioritizes the virtual, real art can point us in the right direction. But, how does an artist make a first impression? How will they evoke a strong experience through a static image?
It’s a daunting responsibility for even the most talented among us. To balance message with form while driving the sentiment home to the viewer borders on sorcery. Yet, to do it in less than 25 square feet is a master craft. And that’s precisely what we have called our artists to do.
So, we have summoned some of the most talented eye poets in the city and given them each 25 square feet to share an experience with you.
Des Moines Downtown Farmers’ Market
Every Saturday from August 28th until October 16th!
