For a mini-preview peep here,




Since its inception into the burgeoning Hip-Hop subculture of the late 70s, a decline in record sales, and the advent of technology, the vinyl record still maintains its relevancy by becoming a conduit for self expression.

This exhibit will feature artists from all over the country celebrating Hip-Hop's age old medium of the spiral groove...

Some artists include Andy T, Billy Mode, Blister, Daniel Edlen, Jon Bollo, Megan Buchanan, Michael Todd Smith, Decoy, Stew Lus, Ellington Robinson and more.
