AcA’s President’s Circle members are invited to the first viewing of Our Point in Space, AcA’s 2025 juried summer group exhibition. Thank you to our Presenting Sponsor of this exhibit, Jones Walker LLP and to our Host Committee for their support of Our Point in Space: Chuck Boudreaux, Kiki Frayard, Tracy and Bryan Frentz, and Dr. Mary B. Neiheisel Curated by the South Louisiana artist collective Luminous Lookout (Dawn Black, Kathryn Hunter, and Kelli Scott Kelley), Our Point in Space invites Louisiana artists to explore the concept of place—personally, regionally, or globally. From abstraction to narrative, artists consider how we define where we stand and how identity, environment, and belonging intersect in today’s shifting world. This year’s exhibition drew over 90 submissions, with final artist selections to be announced soon. At this event, enjoy a private viewing before the exhibition opens to the public, along with complimentary beverages, refreshments, and live entertainment. Please RSVP for yourself and your guests to help us prepare for your arrival.
