First Friday Art
\n5-8PM<\/h2>\n

First Friday Art is a monthly, community-wide event where dozens of art venues across Burlington host openings, exhibitions, and happenings. The event is free and open to anyone.

At the BCA Center, Burlington City Arts presents: Rebecca Wiseman’s Skin Ego<\/em>, featuring a sculptural re-creation of a beached whale; Barbara Zucker\u2019s Adorned: Hairstyles of an Ancient Dynasty<\/em>, featuring paintings and an installation of acrylic abstractions inspired by the stylized hairstyles of Tang dynasty tomb figures ; “Imperfect Societies”, which probes themes of history, trauma, and nationhood set within the tropes of science fiction; and “Robopoems”, an interdisciplinary project created by Alm@ P\u00e9rez (Tina Escaja) that combines poetry, photography, sound, and technology that explores the intersection of robotics and humanity. At The S.P.A.C.E. Gallery in the South End Arts District, “Form\/Function” features contemporary, handcrafted furniture from members of The Collective at the Vermont Woodworking School. The exhibit showcases modern takes on traditional wooden furniture forms, blurring the line between art and function. Works by emerging local design\/build companies Eleven Wood Design, Jamie Herman Studio Furniture, Towards Nightfall, and Valor Woodworks.

The Brattleboro Museum and Art Center welcomes visitors with six exhibitions, including Amy Bennett’s “Nuclear Family”. Bennett says about her work: \u201cNuclear Family\u201d explores marriage, child rearing, and female identity.
