Follow the String

Reception:
* Saturday, October 29, 2:00 – 4:00 pm

Exhibition Dates:
* October 29 – December 23

Follow the String is an exhibition developed in partnership with Cedars of Marin Textile Arts Collaborative and NIAD Art Center, two Bay Area based progressive studio programs for adults with developmental disabilities.

Curated by NIAD’s Emma Spertus and Julio Rodriguez with NIAD artists Felicia Griffin, Dorian Reid, and Kiesha White, the exhibition features artists from Cedars and NIAD, alongside artists from the broader Bay Area arts community.

Follow the String showcases conventionally trained artists alongside artists with disabilities, blurring distinctions between “insider” and “outsider” art. A workshop will bring together participating artists to create new fiber-based works for the exhibition.

Participating artists include Indira Allegra, Miguel Arzabe, Jean Coury, Sylvia Fragoso, Felicia Griffin, Gail Lefevre, and Ramekon O’Arwisters, among many others. Please visit our event page for the complete list of artists.
