DAWN DEDEAUX: THE SPACE BETWEEN WORLDS 

This Friday, October 22, NOMA celebrates the opening of The Space Between Worlds, the first comprehensive museum exhibition by New Orleans–based multimedia artist Dawn DeDeaux. Since the 1970s, DeDeaux’s art has addressed some of the most pressing issues of our time, from questions of social justice to increasingly urgent environmental concerns.

The exhibition will be open during regular museum hours, 10:00 am–5:00 pm, as well as from 5:30–9:00 pm. During the evening, join us for curator-led tours, interactive art-making activities, and live music. All programming is free with museum admission.
