MOAH:CEDAR presents Creative Pollination Art Mixers, a space where ideas bloom and cross-pollinate. This event brings artists of all levels together in order to foster community, discuss various topics of interest, share art, and expand skills. Each month will feature a special guest and themed discussion for tips on developing a career in the arts as well as feature a selection of video art screenings.
Gatherings are held every third Thursday of the month from 5pm-8pm. They are FREE to the public. No reservation required, but you are encouraged to RSVP at our Eventbrite event. They take place in Cedar Hall. Entrance is through the main entrance off Cedar Ave. or through our "Artist's Garden" and the patio gate entrance on the north side of the Cedar Center for the Arts (just off Lancaster Blvd.) - look for the butterfly sculptures and hummingbird mural.
