The NARS Foundation Exhibition Program presents compelling and innovative work being produced on a local, national, and international level by emerging and mid-career artists and curators today. The Main Gallery and Project Space are located in an industrial building amongst our residency studios, which allows for a unique opportunity to present and experience contemporary artwork within a work-space environment. The presence of artists’ studios also allows for further dialogue and exchange between artists and curators.
