21 artists transform 21 rooms into a one-night art experience
21 featured artists will be afforded one of the motel's 21 rooms for two nights to serve as a mini-residency or act as a studio. On the second evening, two stories of rooms will be opened to the public and presented as mini-galleries. The show will transform the Nevada Motel into an interactive spectacle of installation, performance and video art. Participating artists will be coming from as close as Wells, Maine, and as far away as Dallas, Texas. 21 Rooms was guest-curated by Quinn Corey, a long-time creative presence in the emerging arts scene in Providence, RI, along with 3S co-founder, John Gayle. The event is free and open to the public (donations generously accepted) and the Nevada Motel is located at 141 Long Beach Avenue in York, Maine. 21 Rooms is part of 3S's ongoing Open Space series.
