Noon–4pm

• Makerspace: Nail Salon (John & Robyn Horn Education Center, level 3):
  • Led by talented local nail artist Rachel Ghazarian step into the world of nail art and design your own set of press-on nails. Inspired by Kim Ha’s photograph Ladies and Lowrider on view in The New Salon exhibition, this drop-in activity invites participants to transform their nails into painted canvases. All ages and abilities are welcome (children must be accompanied by an adult).
• Film: Auto-Morphosis (Multipurpose Space, level 1)
  • What if you could morph your car into a mobile work of art and drive it down the road for all to see? What would it look like? What would the world think of you? Join us for a screening of the delightful documentary Automorphosis. This film explores the minds and hearts of an inspiring collection of eccentrics, visionaries, and just plain folks who have transformed their autos into artworks. On a humorous and touching journey, we learn that an art car has the power to change us, to alter our view of our increasingly homogeneous world.
