FOCUS FEST: A Photography Day at OAG

October 27 @ 11:00 am - 4:00 pm

Join us for a day filled with presentations, demos, and workshops as we celebrate our photography exhibitions on view! 

This event will begin with an artist talk with Jeff Thomas about his works in the new exhibition, Stories My Father Couldn’t Tell Me: Jeff Thomas Origin, on view in our Spencerville Gallery. 

Learn about various photographic processes at the SPAO info table, then join us for a Cyanotype workshop! 

Don’t miss artist Olivia Johnston’s spot talk on her Project X Award exhibition, Saints and Madonnas. Then, capture a memorable photo at the KODAK GIRLS booth! 

Finally, join us in the Alma Duncan Salon for some refreshments and a fascinating discussion between artist Chun Hua Catherine Dong, and OAG’s Chief Curator, Rebecca Basciano. Together they will dive into a conversation about Dong’s works in the exhibition on view in our 4th floor galleries, Through the Ground Glass: Reframing William James Topley.
