AN EVENING WITH MARY JANE JACOB



Alloy Pittsburgh in partnership with Radiant Hall Studios and The Mattress factory Museum are proud to present an evening talk with Chicago-based curator Mary Jane Jacob at the Energy Innovation Center on Friday October 16th 6PM.  Jacob is a curator, writer, and educator who shifted her workplace from the museum to the street to critically engage the discourse around public space. In Mary Jane Jacob’s Culture in Action project (1991-1993) artists worked in partnership with communities to explore the changing nature of public art. Jacob's current curatorial focus is on Chicago social practice. Admission is FREE.
