What is Gertrude's Artists Salon?

The artist lounge and lab at the Mills is the site of informal, semi-monthly artist-generated/artist-hosted conversations. Join us for idle conversation, heated exchange and the sporadic, sometimes-thematic exploration of ideas that grow out of and into art.

Gertrude's generally meets from 6:30-8 pm in the Mills Gallery; check back here for up-to-date info.

Each evening’s conversation is hosted by a volunteer artist, artist-team or self-identified art-connected enthusiast who has proposed a subject for the group to consider or activity to engage in, and is prepared to introduce and gently guide process.

Keep your eyes out for the next open call for hosts. You will be asked to email us with proposed session topics and preferred dates.
