We have some very exciting exhibitions and collaborations happening at PAR-Projects this year.
Below are just some highlights! Keep up with us here and on social media for more details.
Spring exhibition: "Meet in the Middle"
A collaboration between ConcertNova, PAR-Projects and MIDTONES Photo Magazine, this exhibition and concert series merges music and photography to explore rich, yet often-overlooked narratives of communities of color in the Midwest. Positioned at a cultural and historical crossroads, these communities exist in a "middle" space—shaped by migration, memory, and transformation. Through this project, photography becomes a visual response to sound, unlocking backstories embedded in the region.
This exhibition will run at The Gallery at Studeō PAR- from April 13th - June 20th. Keep up with all three organizations on social media for more information about exhibition events and the concert series!
