Silver Eye Announces New Lab
Dear friends of Silver Eye,
I’m writing to share some exciting news!
First, thank you for joining us last night for a wonderful evening opening the Fellowship 23 exhibition! If you couldn’t make it, we hope you will stop in the gallery to see the powerful work by the six artists in this show which is up through July 28th.
Notably, most of the work in the Fellowship 23 exhibition was printed and framed at our newly relocated digital lab, our first exhibition produced in this new location. The digital lab has moved and is now open for lab members and service work. Which leads me to this very exciting announcement:
The Lab @ Silver Eye is expanding!
Silver Eye is creating an Education Center where our growing community of photographers, artists, researchers, and art lovers can come together to create, learn, and connect.
Silver Eye is excited to announce that our digital lab is expanding and has relocated to 5228 Penn Ave., at the corner of Penn and Atlantic, five blocks from the gallery. The relocated digital lab and the new Education Center together will be The Lab @ Silver Eye, a vibrant new hub for artists in Pittsburgh and the Bloomfield-Garfield community.
The Lab @ Silver Eye will create exciting new opportunities for photographers, artists, researchers, and art lovers to engage with photography and with one another. We’ll be hosting everything from in person workshops to meet-up groups, portfolio reviews and salon socials. The Lab @ Silver Eye will also feature our Library of photobooks.
Help us to bring this new creativity and learning hub to life by contributing to The Lab @ Silver Eye Launch Fund. Your support today will help us to furnish the space and create our initial round of programing.
We hope that you will join us at future events at The Lab at Silver Eye and help us to spread the word. We are here to provide resources and community to photographers. Learn more about The Lab @ Silver Eye.
We look forward to welcoming you to The Lab @ Silver Eye!
With gratitude
Leo Hsu
Executive Director
