In 1926, radium was a miracle cure, Madame Curie an international celebrity, and luminous watches the latest rage-until the girls who painted them began to fall ill with a mysterious disease. Inspired by a true story, RADIUM GIRLS traces the efforts of Grace Fryer, a dial painter, as she fights for her day in court. Called a "powerful" and "engrossing" drama by critics, RADIUM GIRLS offers a wry, unflinching look at the peculiarly American obsessions with health, wealth, and the commercialization of science." - Dramatic Publishing

unstitch is a big-hearted and unadulterated tour through the organs of a soft and scarred body being torn apart at the seams. Artist Anna King Skeels takes us through the journey of a fat queer person. This work in process examines our relationships with others and the trauma we have endured with our bodies. Centering movement and fiber arts, the gutsy, fluffy unstitch invites you to FEEL.

“Oneness: Brie Ruais”, the first in Contemporary Craft’s new Tomayko Solo Artist Elevation Series, is a solo exhibition featuring the work of ceramic artist Brie Ruais.
The exhibition is a large survey of work, spanning eight years and exploring the idea that memory, place, and experience are based on an individual's perception and haptic experience.
Each of Ruais' works start with clay equal to Ruais’ body weight at the time. From there, she uses her body as a tool to push and shape the clay into its final form, completing the work in under 15 minutes.
“Oneness: Brie Ruais” is on view Feb. 2 - May 4, 2024. Admission is free.
