Opening Reception for House Life Project From 2015 through 2017, the House Life Project (HLP) reimagined abandoned houses on Indianapolis’s Near Eastside as hubs for artistic practice and community collaboration. It was a flexible and collaborative project where artists and neighbors formed new relationships, strengthened existing ones, and pooled their creativity in order to examine tough questions related to the changing neighborhood. We’re Open, Come In: The House Life Project transforms the gallery into an inclusive and welcoming space that invites visitors to learn about the HLP, its methods, and its community. Through an array of artworks and interactive installations, the exhibition will spark conversations about neighborliness, housing inequity, and the ways in which art can and can’t facilitate social justice. Join us for a gallery talk with Meredith Brickell and Laura Holzman. Light refreshments will be served following the event. |

This allows viewers to express a part of their “inner essence” through the newly enhanced landscape. Join us for brief talks from the team who made this interactive exhibition possible and try out the VR environment yourself. Refreshments will be provided following the event. Student Team:
