Opening Reception: Tools + Table & Bread + Butter
Opening Reception: Tools + Table & Bread + Butter
Join us for an evening celebrating art, food, and culture at the opening reception of Tools + Table, a juried exhibition exploring the many ways artists interpret functional tools, dishware, and serving pieces across media. From cultural tradition to mass consumption, the works on view offer a rich, multi-sensory experience that sparks both visual and intellectual curiosity. Tools + Table will be on view in the East Gallery.
Also opening is Bread + Butter, a companion exhibition by Ashleigh Walters, presented in the Montgomery and Greenfield Galleries, featuring food-inspired artwork that deepens the conversation around nourishment, labor, and everyday rituals.
The celebration continues beyond the galleries with Supper, a special ticketed event in partnership with Palm Beach Harvest—https://armoryart.org/supper/
