ARTalks at GCCA: Engaging Artist Talks & Demonstrations

Join us at GCCA for our ARTalks, a series of free artist talks, performances, virtual interviews, and demonstrations held in conjunction with our Main or Community Gallery exhibitions. These engaging, hour-long events provide a unique opportunity to learn directly from exhibiting artists, whether they are local talents or creators from across the U.S.

Each ARTalk offers a deeper look into the artist’s creative process, inspirations, and techniques. Attendees can ask questions, gain insights, and connect with the artists in a welcoming and interactive environment. Whether you’re an artist, student, or simply an art enthusiast, ARTalks are a fantastic way to engage with the arts and expand your understanding of contemporary creative practices.

These events occur every other month and take place in January, March, May, July, September, and November.

Don’t miss these chances to explore art through the eyes of its makers—admission is free!
