FIELDNOTES
Field Notes is where we document the full range of what ALCES does in the world — beyond our anchor projects, and into the everyday work of showing up and being in community.
Here you'll find the partnerships we've joined, the events we've helped bring to life, the artists and organizers we've lent our resources to, and the short-term projects we've launched in response to what our community needs. It's a record of how we move — responsive, relational, and rooted in the belief that our platform exists to be shared.
BUILDING A BETTER WORLD: FROM THE SHELL OF THE OLD
For three weeks this June, Building a New World from the Shell of the Old turned Gorgon Gallery into a room where labor history and the present tense sat down together. Curated by ALCES alongside the Working-Class Studies Association Conference, the exhibition gathered seven artists — and every visitor willing to fill out a time card — around a single question: what kind of world are we building, shift by shift?
