In partnership with environmentalist and musician Gabriella Smith, Art Club brings climate conscious art-making to the Walker. Several local artists whose work supports eco-friendly art-making practices host drop-in art-making sessions centered around preservation, upcycling, zero-waste, and more.
Materials are provided and distributed on a first-come, first-served basis; supplies are limited. Activities are designed for all skill levels. No prior registration is required for Art Club. The more you visit, the more you’ll discover.
Gallery admission is free on Thursday nights, 5 to 9 pm. Save time and reserve your gallery admission tickets online. Please note: Individual events during Free Thursday Nights are first-come, first-served.
Gabriella Smith is as much an environmentalist as she is a composer. In her Twin Cities debut, she presents Aquatic Ecology, a major piece performed by contemporary classical sextet yMusic. The 40-minute opus brings to light hidden ecosystems, sampling raw and processed field recordings from sources including California tidepools and Polynesian coral reefs. The evening opens with Smith’s contemplative duo with long-time creative partner and yMusic cellist Gabriel Cabezas, featuring the composer herself on violin, vocals, and electronics. Translating the effects of the climate crisis into sound, Smith makes a moving plea for the planet we call home.
