Exhibition Opening
Welcoming Spaces is a new collaboration between Partnership for the Public Good (PPG) and the Burchfield Penney that places the work of diverse artists into local non-profit spaces. Before the works are installed in their new homes around the city, all of the selected artworks will be brought together at the Burchfield Penney for a special exhibition— with an opening celebration on May M&T Second Friday!
