Not Accepted: GAAC Lecture

Raise your hand if you’re an artist. Now raise your hand if your art has ever been rejected. Probably all of us, right? The Glen Arbor Arts Center is exploring this all-too-common experience with their lecture “Not Accepted: An Historical Look at Art Exhibition Rejection.” Gallery Manager Sarah Bearup-Neal will lead a discussion about who determines what is acceptable art, whose voices are heard, and whose voices are erased. The lecture will focus specifically on the Paris Salon of 1863 and the Third Reich’s suppression and destruction of visual art. “Not Accepted” is part of GAAC’s ongoing “HISstory/HERstory: Whose Story?” series, which features a juried exhibit through Oct. 23 along with multiple themed events. Join the conversation on Sunday, Sept. 7, at 11am in the GAAC Main Gallery. Tickets are $5 for GAAC members, $10 for nonmembers. glenarborart.org
