Ritual Spaces – An immersive environment exploring spiritual and communal expression through contemporary artistic practice.
WaterFire Arts Center presents TIERRA FUTURA: Boricua Land Futures – bringing together Boricua artists from Puerto Rico and its diasporas to imagine futures rooted in ancestral knowledge and cultural sovereignty.

REGISTER IN ADVANCE OR SHOW UP THE NIGHT OF!
A number of seats on the bus may be available (first-come, first-served) to anyone who shows up on Gallery Night. We encourage guests to reserve spots in advance via Givebutter. We ask that you donate when you check out for the convenience of guaranteeing your spot on the tour of your choice ahead of time.
Accessibility Notes:
Many of the Gallery Night art spaces are wheelchair accessible. However, the buses we hire for Gallery Night cannot accommodate wheelchairs.
All tours involve some walking and some stops may include stairs.
We invite wheelchair users to enjoy self-guided tours on Gallery Night.
Helpful Notes for the Night of the Event:
We recommend arriving at the Graduate 15-10 minutes before your tour time. One of our volunteers will be at a podium with a Gallery Night banner near the main entrance to check you in and answer any questions.
If your plans change, please cancel your Givebutter reservation so that someone else can enjoy the tour.
Tours occasionally run late, so we recommend allowing buffer time if you’re planning to attend another event afterward.
