See the Mirage Ghost stories, rainy nights, and strange skies await you in this exciting new group exhibit. Mirage is a colorful and eclectic blend of the minds of seven recent graduates of IUPUI’s Herron school of Art & Design. You can read more about this show here, and browse the full exhibit in our online gallery. Ready for Another Intern Summer? Every summer, high school and college interns come from near and far to participate in exciting creative projects in the community, like Grace Graves and Taylor Solomon, who are co-coordinating this year's Bloombox Festival. We cultivate our interns' creativity and leadership; in return, they help the city flourish with their fresh perspectives and energy. If you would like to support the Harrison Center's work, including the intern program, donate here. Religion, Spirituality, and the Arts Exhibit Eleven artists participated in IUPUI’s Religion, Spirituality, and the Arts Seminar under the direction of Rabbi Sandy Sasso. Every year, this seminar brings together artists, religious leaders, humanities scholars, and a broad range of people from diverse backgrounds. Participants spend months working through their artistic responses to an ancient religious narrative. This show is available to view in our Underground Gallery. Read more about it here. Porching in Martindale Brightwood On Friday, the Harrison Center supported over 20 houses in the Martindale Brightwood neighborhood who signed up and decorated their porches for the Indy 500. This initiative is about more than just decoration—it's about connecting neighbors, having fun, and celebrating community: things that strengthen neighborhood bonds. Creative Placemaking coordinator Cierra Johnson spent the day porching with neighbors and further connecting community members with the Harrison Center. Artist Talk - Hector Del Campo Hector Del Campo recounts childhood memories, his Cuban heritage, and other inspirations for his new exhibit, Escape Into Memories, on display now in our Gallery Annex. Watch the new Artist Talk with Hector above. The Harrison Center will be closed next Monday for Memorial Day. We will reopen for our normal hours on the following Tuesday.
