2020 Arts & Culture Showcase – Virtual Edition

The long-awaited day is here– Our 2020 #FCCreates Showcase is “live” online!

While we still have hopes that one day soon we’ll be able to gather in-person to celebrate the artists and creative souls who call FC home, for now, we’ll make due with a virtual celebration.

How to have your own mini-showcase at home:

  1. Set the mood: Make a snack (Food IS art & culture. Plus, who doesn’t love snacks?). Put on some music. Get dressed up if you want to! Alternatively, put on your most comfortable clothes so that nothing is distracting you from taking in the arts and culture.
  2. Go on a virtual “stroll” through the gallery (below) and check out work from some of our residents and staff. Maybe call a friend and “stroll” together– talk about your favorite pieces and catch up on life, just like you would in person!
  3. Share work of your own! If you’re on Instagram, tag us @fccreates and/or #FCCreatesShowcase. If you’re an FC Resident, Client, or Staff member, you can also submit your work for our next round of features.
