Lynn Dau, "Transitional Wear-Day To Night"
Join Pacific Rim Sculptors for First Friday at MK Contemporary Art Gallery and experience Connected, a juried sculpture exhibition presented by PRS in partnership with MK Contemporary. Bringing together artists from diverse backgrounds, the exhibition explores the many meanings of connection between people, materials, environments, and technologies through a wide range of contemporary sculptural approaches.
Featuring work by both Pacific Rim Sculptors members and non-members, Connected was made possible in part by support from the Arts Council Santa Cruz’s "Create Grant", which helped offset exhibition costs and expand participation.
Meet participating artists, engage with contemporary sculpture, and enjoy an evening of art and conversation in downtown Santa Cruz.
Date: Friday, February 6, 2026
Time: 6:00–8:00 PM
Location: MK Contemporary Art Gallery
703 Front Street, Santa Cruz, CA 95060
