Hearts, Tarts and Arts! It’s Moving Theatre’s 4th exhibition
The Moving Theatre will present its fourth First Friday gallery exhibition at the East Tennessee Technology Access Center, 116 Childress St., on June 1, from 6:00–10:00 PM. The exhibition centers around the short play Let’s Hear It for the Queen by Alice Childress, a jive-talk riff on the Queen of Hearts’ nursery rhyme, performing three times throughout the evening.
Gallery admission is free, with $10 suggested donation.
The cast features Knoxville actors Big Gay James, Rebecca Gomez, Marlena Shaw, and Steven Trigg, as well as members of ETTAC’s SPARK (Starting People Along the Road to Knowledge) program.
The exhibition features sculpture and mixed media art by Booder Barnes, Emily Bivens, Sarah Brobst and Gregory Tune, and many more, plus live music by percussionist James Clemons. Art will be available for purchase and refreshments provided. KnoxMakers community workshop, in the basement of ETTAC, will host an open house concurrent with the exhibition.
This exhibition is made possible by an Arts Build Communities grant from the Tennessee Arts Commission.
