Real F.R.I.E.N.D.S at Boston City Hall's Mayor's Gallery
November 7, 2020 - March 29, 2021

Beacon Gallery is proud to support the display of Real F.R.I.E.N.D.S at Boston's City Hall in the Mayor's Gallery.  The exhibition will run for a minimum of 6 weeks, and can be visited by appointment. Please contact Beacon Gallery for arrangements

With its unique concept of collaboration and friendship, Real F.R.I.E.N.D.S offers a counterpoint to current events with fun, colorful pieces focused on themes of friendship and love. The intention of this exhibit is twofold: first, to invite the community to experience interdisciplinary collaborations constructed around Eversley’s artistic avatar Spencer Ward, a bold nerd. Second, Real F.R.I.E.N.D.S intends to reinforce the belief that a successful collaborative process strengthens communal bonds and generates dynamic creativity.

Come and visit the “Nerd in Love”, Spencer Ward, as he explores artistic frontiers with the help of a host of fellow artists in a selection of diverse media. Graphic color blocks, iconic portraits, live painting, as well as interactive art (with appropriate hygiene/social distancing regulations in place of course), this is a show that won’t be soon forgotten. This show aims to demonstrate that the best relationships are ones built on trust and understanding – with a touch of humor, playfulness and flexibility thrown in.
