What we do…

The Firehouse Art Center inspires cultural engagement and human connection by providing
life enhancing experiences through exhibitions, education and community events.

 

The Firehouse is a non-profit art center committed to exhibiting thought provoking art created by local, regional and national artists. Through our no fee admission gallery and our outreach art classes taught at no cost to under resourced areas of the community, we strive to bring the healing nature of art to all.

The Firehouse Art Center is Longmont’s leading contemporary art center featuring national and local artists with over a dozen exhibitions a year. A cornerstone of the Longmont Creative District, we offer educational programs, events and membership programs to support creativity for all. Our goal is to raise cultural awareness and understanding of the arts in the regional community.

TRANSLATED LANDSCAPES
JULY 12- SEPT 8, 2024
ARTIST REMARKS @ 5:30PM
ARTIST TALK VIA ZOOM, JULY 28 at 3pm MST

The Firehouse presents Translated Landscapes, in which four artists redefine, reinterpret, and reconstruct the concept of humanity in relation to nature. Opening July 12, 2024, we explore the interplay between these ecosystems, patchworked together through different mediums and expressions. Tradition and modernity come together.

Featuring works by Chloe Wilwerding, Chuck Brenton, Kerry St. Laurent, and Adam Michael Kozak, these pieces not only fasten together ideas relating to the impermanence of life, but how the space in which we live that life has evolved. Each artist promotes an unexplored reality, tapping into the inherent structure and symbolism behind the environment that inspires them. Through diverse mediums, such as film, sound, embroidery and sculpture, these artists confront the unfortunate truth that nature is being isolated from the individual and tie tradition with modernity to examine how we approach our world.
Artist Talk: July 28, 3pm-4pm via Zoom
