Judy Wapp: ‘VisuAlchemy’ exhibition opening
March 22 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm
Free
As an activist, visual artist, and radio personality for nearly 75 years, Judy Wapp has lived an incredible life, laying the groundwork for her intense interest in communication via mass media – the subject of her collage work for nearly 33 years.
A thoughtful look at Judy’s art career spanning six decades, VisuAlchemy is a never-before exhibited retrospective showing at the Nelson Museum, Archives & Gallery from March 23 to June 22, 2024. The show features many of her collage pieces that have been held in private collections for years and not accessible to the public, as well as samples of art cards that Judy has traded around the globe throughout her storied career.
Judy’s daughter, actor and musician Bessie Wapp, has developed a special performance for the opening reception on Friday, March 22 @ 7pm. Guests are strongly encouraged to wear neckties!
