Three Dimensional Saturday Night Symposiums at Franconia Sculpture Park (FSP)
VACUM critics have are featured in the Three Dimensional Saturday Night Symposiums at Franconia Sculpture Park regularly during the summer. 6:00-10:00 pm. This program is a partnership between FSP (Franconia Sculpture Park) and V.A.C.U.M. (Visual Arts Critics Union of Minnesota). The public/community is warmly invited to a series of lively evenings for a (free) interchange of ideas between artists and art critics. FSP artists and some of Minnesota’s most interesting art critics will converge, once a month, from June through September. A no-holds-barred discussion among artists, writers and anyone in the public interested in art of three or more dimensions, Three Dimensional Saturday Nights will include slide shows of current resident artists’ work, a freewheeling exchange among artists and critics and audience, and things to eat and drink. Meet at "the Park" and we’ll proceed from there. $8.00 for BBQ dinner.
