This exhibit looks incredible. Really interested in how they're connecting visual art with literary themes. Should be a thought-provoking experience.

I love this venue but parking is ALWAYS a nightmare. Has anyone actually found good parking there before? Genuinely asking.
Mariana Saldana · 5d
The pieces I've seen from the artists are stunning. This is going to be worth the trip.

Just a heads up - went to their last event and there were way too many people crammed in. It was hard to actually see the art. Might go on a weekday if they're open then?

@fiona.sail The parking garage two blocks away is your best bet. Street parking fills up by 10am.
Susan Mitchell · 5d
Looking forward to this! Is it free or paid admission?

@sue.midcentury I think suggested donation but worth checking their website. Also yes to parking garage - I've gotten spots there even during busy events.

@c.lopez.educator @d.chen.photo Thanks! That's actually super helpful. I'll plan for the garage.
