A throw back to the sensibilities of 18th century France, Salon is a platform for the artist looking for an aperture to display their ideas and creations to like-minded contemporaries.  This setting is ideal for half thoughts, maybes, and hopefuls as well as the voyeur, accomplished, skilled, and antiquated.  Anything is possible- sound, performance, video, dance, sculpture, readings. Whatever it is you have created, we want a glimpse.
