BLINK is back and so is BLINK in the Ballroom, a music and light experience in the ballroom of Music Hall presented by Friends of Music Hall.
This year I’m working with FMH to welcome more attendees to the event and amplify a few amazing artists in our community at the same time.
Take a quick break from the bustle of BLINK, purchase a drink from the bar, and come experience a colorful new exhibit by our dear friend and collaborator Adoria L. Maxberry of Most Outgrowing LLC. This exhibit is full of color, joy, and positivity, just like her! It’s definitely something you don’t want to miss.
Adoria is not stopping at the art on the walls, she’s also bringing it to the next generation of art lovers with a specially curated Music Hall themed coloring sheet for the kids (and big kids) in attendance. So there is a little fun and color for everyone involved.
Also on exhibit will be artwork from local contemporary artist and painter Zuri Ali. Zuri’s art is all about exploring the depths of the human experience and the vulnerability that comes with it. Her pieces are sure to invoke opportunities for self reflection and conversation.
There will be a shimmer wall for the perfect selfie, a botanical model of Music Hall on display and of course the sounds of the Wurlitzer organ playing music from Broadway, film and some of your favorite pop songs, performed by Cincinnati’s own Trent Sims.
There’s a little something for the entire family!
It’s all free and open to the public.
Music Hall is open every night of Blink. Come in and experience the joy and power of art both inside and outside one of Cincy’s most iconic venues.
See you there! ✨
