want to be part of the exhibition?
As a part of our fortieth anniversary year, we are collecting stories, memories, histories and images from the people who helped us reach this milestone. Whether you are a board alumni, past exhibiting artist, former staff member, program participant, volunteer, or even a regular gallery visitor with fond memories of Firstdraft we want to hear from you <3
We are trying to get a feel for the human side of Firstdraft, beyond the snippets of news articles, opening invitations and exhibition documentation that we have in our extensive archive.
