ProjectRoom is a small exhibition space created in April 2008 to promote contemporary artists in a spirit of collaboration and risk.
ProjectRoom works with emerging and mid-career artists to gain critical recognition and broader national exposure while presenting
to our immediate community the efforts and ideas of challenging and original artists.

Reader's Block
With mirrors, string, text, wax, wood, drawings, and various other odds and ends Reader's Block transforms ProjectRoom into a brewpot of signs, marks and reflectors that put into form what happens when words, images and objects fail to explain themselves.
