Public Assembly: The Body and LB574

Using Bemis Center’s current exhibition Presence in the Pause: Interiority and Its Radical Immanence as an entry point, this series of discussions offers Omaha an opportunity to share ideas and create community together. Co-facilitated by artists Caitlin Cass and Jamie Ho, this conversation seeks to connect the exhibitions with issues directly impacting Omaha’s social, political, and artistic landscape. Formatted as an informal discussion and blurring the boundary of “expert” and “audience,” Public Assembly harnesses the creativity and vision of the community to hold space for collective meaning-making.
