Press Release Auburn: Vault Gallery Raindrops by Josh Sands Contact: Allison Hyde, Arts Program Supervisor 253-931-5100 arts@auburnwa.gov<mailto:arts@auburnwa.gov> FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: October 30th, 2024 ___________ The City of Auburn and the Auburn Arts Commission are pleased to present an art installation, titled, Raindrops by Josh Sands at the Postmark Center for the Arts Vault Gallery, on view October 30th - January 5th, 2024. Artwork Statement: This piece continues my series of temporary public installations that showcases glass in the form of raindrops. Here the ordinary experience of a downpour invites viewers into the space to contemplate, observe, and feel the sensations and emotions of such an event, in a displaced setting. The narrative of this installation alludes to the importance of arts education and the need to shelter and support art during challenging times. Through the stewardship of local cultural centers like the Postmark and the City of Auburn's programming, arts education and exhibition can continue to be provided and protected.
