Benefit w/ Positive Force DC for Many Languages, One Voice

Rhizome is excited to team up with Positive Force DC to present a benefit for Many Languages One Voice (MLOV) in collaboration with Philadelphia visual artist and improviser Jim Strong.

The event will also be the opening reception for Jim Strong's residency at Rhizome entitled "Workshop." The exhibition will feature a multi-room installation of sound sculptures and drawing, as well as art created within Rhizome's running series "Unthings" which pairs artists with children from the Takoma area to provide children with the opportunity to explore, create, and learn.
