Excite all your senses at the kickoff to PAFA’s spring season, where we’ll showcase the Henry Ossawa Tanner: Modern Spirit exhibition during the artist’s favorite time of day – night. Grab a glass of wine, linger by a jazz trio or experience the mystery of how electric light works with interactive experiences provided by inventor artists extraordinaire from The Hacktory and Hive76. Fourth Wall Arts returns to PAFA to curate the guest performances for the evening, flipping all their creative switches with performances by percussion group Spoken Hand, opera singer Alicia Mendoza and spoken word poet extraordinaire Nina “Lyrispect” Ball. Or listen to a gallery talk about the sensuality of Salome or the shocking reality of the electric light bulb in 19th century cities, and you’ll see PAFA’s biggest exhibition of the year in a totally new light.
