LAST RITES Call for Submissions The end of an era some call “Classic Lump” is coming to a transitional point August 31st. On the Other Side, we’ve started an evolving, social monument called ‘Last Rites’. We are inviting artist’s to respond in an ephemeral and photographic way to tell the story of Lump which all began in 1996. If you had an exhibition or know anyone who was in a show, played a show or rented a studio between September 1996 thru August 2026, please think about submitting photos, invites, artwork (smallish) to our ever changing wall that tells the story of Lump.  We will be making our way forward as things roll in. And in August we will invite the community to respond to what Lump has meant to them over these last 30 years! Spread the word!
