Join us for Gallery Activation Hour, an informal drop-in experience, every Saturday 1pm – 2pm in OMCA’s Great Hall for Into the Brightness: Artists from Creativity Explored, Creative Growth & NIAD. Spend time with our enthusiastic and knowledgeable volunteer Gallery Activation facilitators who will generate conversations and engagement throughout the hour, reimagining how we activate our galleries.
About Gallery Activation Hour
Gallery Activation Hour (GAH) puts a twist on the traditional museum tour. Using an informal approach, our GAH Facilitators combine content knowledge with lived experience. Centering community voice and encouraging dialogue in our galleries provides meaningful and fresh interpretations of our Special Exhibitions.
