JUL 31 | Artist Talk and Book Signing: Bootsy Holler

Artist Talk and Book Signing with Bootsy Holler
July 31 | 6:30pm

Join us on Wednesday, July 31 at 6:30pm for an artist talk and book signing with Bootsy Holler. Bootsy will be speaking about her latest book: Treasures. Featuring simple objects from Holler’s mother’s home, Treasures is a humorous look at the objects people live with, that we build our lives around, that we give breath to, and how they eventually become part of our lives – and tell our stories.

Free with RSVP.
