The exhibition is on view from February 2nd through April 5th with a FREE opening reception on Saturday, February 2nd. The opening event will begin at 5:30 pm and Kim Nuxhall will throw out the First Pitch of a handmade “team streamer” onto the Fitton Center’s Monument Avenue pergola at 6:00 pm to launch a colorful collaborative outdoor installation called Team Colors. During the reception, at an indoor gallery Creation Station, visitors can become Team Colors installation artists, making their own fabric and plastic ball streamers to pitch onto the outdoor pergola. Over time, as streamers by multiple makers are pitched, they will layer and overlap, transforming the structure of columns and beams into a huge outdoor weaving. Fitton Center visitors can continue to add to the outdoor weaving through the run of the Road Trip exhibition.

The February 2nd opening event will also include the celebration of artwork in the Community Gallery from Hamilton City elementary schools, coordinated by Ridgeway Elementary and Butler Tech School of the Arts. The evening will continue with Jazz & Cabaret: A Tribute to the Trumpet Kings John Zappa’s Now Hear This which begins at 7:30pm.”
