Indianapolis resident John Sherman will offer visitors a wide selection of photos, posters, essays, articles, and war-time ephemera, all related to the West African country where he lived twice in the 1960s, as well as his recent visit in June 2017, at an exhibition opening on Fri., Feb. 2.
The Circle City Industrial Complex Artists (CCIC Artists) will host a variety of artists as part of the February First Friday art tour, with many artists tailoring their shows on the notion of “love,” in line with the holiday. Love can take many forms, and art has been a strong way to personify, perceive, and interpret love. The CCIC is located at 1125 Brookside Ave.
