Program Description: On the anniversary of the U.S. invasion of Iraq, join artist veteran Aaron Hughes for a special performance in conjunction with his exhibition featured piece, Nine Teacups. TEA is an ongoing dialogue that traverses a variety of landscapes, from the tea sipped on a Chicago sidewalk, to a quaint coffee shop, to a cage in Guantanamo Bay, to a motor pool in Iraq; tea is not only a favored drink but a shared moment that transcends cultural divides and systems of oppression. That is not meant as a cliched utopian statement, but as a reminder of a shared humanity that is so often overlooked. Come to sit, sip tea, and share.
Spaces are limited to 20. Please pre-register today.
