“Living with Fire” art exhibition is a collaborative presentation at three local art galleries opening on Friday, April 4th during the Annual Redding Cultural Cruise. Developed by guest curator, Aundi Taylor, as a part of her MFA thesis, “this juried group show, created in partnership across Redding art venues, is my call for connection (...). It’s an artistic reminder that community unites us in difficult times. The Northern California artists you see here share their interpretations of what it means to live with fire and adapt to a changing world. Their creative works depict literal and metaphorical explorations of lengthening fire seasons, loss, trauma, recovery, regeneration, fortitude, resilience, or regeneration in the context of living in a fire-prone and fire-adapted region. As a viewer in this space, you are invited to connect with the creative brilliance of these artists who see the world intensely and soulfully.”

“Living with Fire” is hosted simultaneously at North Valley Art League - Carter House gallery, the Redding Municipal Airport gallery and at Shasta County Arts Council - Old City Hall. The show opens on Friday, April 4th, with receptions from 4pm to 8pm. “Living with Fire” will be available to visitors at the above-mentioned locations through April 26.

Old City Hall is located at 1313 Market Street in Redding, CA. This gallery is open to all ages and free to visit. Gallery hours are Tuesday-Friday from 10:00-4:00 and Saturday from 10:00-3:00.
