ALICE HOPE: Priceless

ON VIEW NOW in the windows of 8 Jobs Lane!

We are thrilled to launch our first Storefront Art Project with ALICE HOPE: Priceless, located in the former Chico’s at 8 Jobs Lane. Priceless is a multimedia installation made with accordioned chromed coat hangers, strung can tabs, and shopping tags. Come take a stroll in the village and check out the first window in this new initiative to keep the village vibrant year round!

Of the project, Artist Alice Hope says “While assembling this installation, my query has been: What’s priceless? I hope for this unanswered question to be the subject of this installation, my first in a store front. In our commodified world and in this commodified discipline, where value equates success, I’m aspiring to transform tens of thousands of blank price tags, a vast population of ephemera, into evanescence.”

SAC Storefront Art Project is made possible, in part, thanks to the Long Island Community Foundation.

Thank you to Mayor Jesse Warren and the Trustees of the Village of Southampton, the landlord of 8 Jobs Lane and Morley Property Management for their support of this project.

If you own a building on Main Street or Jobs Lane that is or will be vacant and you would like to work with SAC on this project or if you are an artist who would like to submit an installation proposal, email Amy Kirwin at akirwin@southamptoncenter.org
