Come support High Concept Labs for an evening of fundraising with experimental, multi-disciplinary, and lovely genre-defying artistic projects, rounded out with delicious food and a silent auction. Artists include many HCL alumni as well as special guest Spectralina, the audio-visual performance project of Dan Bitney and Selina Trepp.
In recognition of HCL’s long-running Open Lab series, a platform for artists to gain perspective on work-in-development through community exchange, Esther Grimm, an artist and arts leadership coach and the founding Executive Director of 3Arts, will moderate a conversation with Andy Slater following his autobiographical performance.
Hosted at the beloved Links Hall, the evening is designed to delight, inspire, and ignite new ideas with performances that incorporate improvisation, audience engagement, puppetry, augmented reality, and more.
Proceeds will support the 2025 Residency, our Strategic Plan, and our Cash Reserve Challenge. Ticket sales and all donations will be matched dollar-for-dollar, with donations from first-time donors matched 3-to-1.
