The City of Irvine invites the community to an exhibition reception for Art at City Hall: Suburban Ecologies Thursday, August 12, 3–5 p.m., at Irvine City Hall.
Suburban Ecologies brings together multiple interlocking creative projects produced by Jesse Colin Jackson, a Canadian artist based in Irvine. This work was conceived in response to the natural and built environments in which the artist lives: the competing waterfronts of Orange County and the repeating architectures and topographic space defined by the City of Irvine. His largescale artworks will be on display in public areas of all three floors of City Hall during regular operating hours, through August 27.
“We are proud to host the work of local artists here at Irvine City Hall,” said Irvine Mayor Farrah N. Khan. “We hope the public takes a moment during their next visit here to browse Art at City Hall and enjoy the immense talent of our residents on display.”
Art at City Hall is an ongoing series of art exhibitions bringing artwork from local exhibiting artists to Irvine City Hall. Artwork on display has also often been featured at other City galleries including the Irvine Fine Arts Center and the Great Park Gallery. Exhibitions focus on artists of all age groups, include all media types, with new exhibitions seasonally.
City Hall is open to the public 7:30 a.m.–5:30 p.m. Monday–Thursday and 8 a.m.–5 p.m. Friday. The exhibition and reception are free. For information, visit cityofirvine.org/artatcityhall.
