Artist Talk with Fellow Jess Walters

Join us for an Artist Talk with February New City Arts Fellow, Jess Walters, on March 5 at 1:30PM EST. Jess will give the talk via Zoom. Participants are invited to join virtually or watch from Welcome Gallery via a livestream. This event is free and open to the public. Registration is required. RSVP here.

Jess Walters will share about their Fellowship project and exhibit, Delights: Disparities — a spectrum of life lived in the meantime. The exhibit is a collection of remarkable moments and things made throughout experiences of life lived between wellness and illness, exploring truths learned in the liminality.
