Kelly Akashi

Kelly Akashi, a visual artist, will lead a discussion about her creative work with glass, bronze, crystal, stone, and ash. This event invites families and community members to learn directly from the artist about her artistic process and inspiration. Akashi's sculptures explore themes of memory, inheritance, and loss by transforming everyday objects into multimedia pieces that capture the passage of time and change. It's a wonderful opportunity for curious minds of all ages to understand how artists work with unconventional materials to tell meaningful stories. This free event welcomes all audiences and requires a ticket to attend. It's an accessible way to engage with contemporary art and gain insight into an artist's creative practice without any cost to your family. Whether your kids are budding artists themselves or simply enjoy learning how people express themselves through their work, this discussion offers an enriching cultural experience in Columbus.
