CALL
FOR ARTISTS
A string quartet, a lullaby, Motown on the radio, rapping in
the rain…expression of joy, of hope, of pain, the soundtrack to our lives …
The TIC Gallery welcomes submissions for Music: Muse, an
exhibit running from October 27 to February 23, 2013.
Just a block from the Broad Art Museum, the Technology
Innovation Center (TIC) is housed in a 7,000-square-foot space on the third

of documentary films to high-tech startups. With its colorful walls and modern
industrial layout, the TIC is an ideal display venue for art.
