The Brave The Bold The MECA Thesis Show!

This is gallery talk WMPG Radio's window into the world of Art with your host Lars.

BRAVE

BOLD

FEARLESS

STRONG

RESILIENT

COURAGEOUS

Words that could describe any member of our fire, police departments or members of our armed services.
BUT NO, today they exalt those that have persevered to the Baccalaureate of Fine Arts thesis exhibition.  The culmination of four years of study at the Maine College of Art.  The "Thesis Show" is the focal point that light at the end or beginning of the tunnel for 70 of the college's artists.  The 1st Friday opening will be the largest single day exhibition in Portland taking up the 1st, 2nd & 3rd floors of the colleges Congress street Porteous Building.  Worth attending just to feel the youthful enlightening vibe, this is a great opportunity to meet the cutting edge or dare I say bleeding edge artist of today.as they stage the works of four years of under graduate effort.
It' a one evening event 5pm - 8pm 1st Friday, and like an eclipse you will be able to experience the light & the dark, the good & the bad, the Yin & the Yang  simultaneously.

 Go See THE THESIS SHOW!

Because your good mind needs good art! 

The Maine College of Art is located at the heart of the Portland Arts district  522 Congress!
