Friday, 11/20, 3:30-4:30PM EST - Topher Lineberry

"Developing as a Young Artist at Elsewhere"

Elsewhere’s inaugural intern, Topher Lineberry, who first came to the museum at age 13 and is now seeking an MFA in visual art at Hunter College, will reflect on the experience of learning from and contributing to the museum as a young person, how it has impacted their artistic practice, and what important role Elsewhere can uniquely play in the lives of Greensboro’s youth in the future.

Christopher Lineberry is a multidisciplinary project-based artist whose work mediates research, experience, ethics, and desire. They have shown work at galleries and museums across the country, and presented academic research at colleges, universities, and archives. Lineberry was born and raised in Greensboro, North Carolina, while having spent considerable parts of their life in the Blue Ridge Mountains. They received a Bachelors of Fine Arts from Tufts University and the School of the Museum of the Fine Arts, Boston. They are currently pursuing a Masters of Fine Arts at Hunter College in New York City.
