Although the Artists Archives of the Western Reserve is dedicated to preserving the past, its latest exhibition at Tri-C’s East Gallery showcases “the new now.” Open to two- and three-dimensional artists from a dozen surrounding counties, the exhibition showcases an eclectic variety of contemporary artwork being produced throughout the region. Michael J. Beam, Curator of Exhibitions & Collections at the Castellani Art Museum of Niagara University juried the exhibit. Awards will be presented during the opening reception from 6 to 8:30 tonight. Free. (Usmani)
