We asked for your favorite prom night memories. Here's what you shared.

Sets are often discarded after productions, with thousands of tons of materials going into dumpsters each year. Now art directors and their allies are pushing for a more sustainable approach.

From the gallery: "What’s most fun for me about running Ice Gallery is getting to see the myriad ways each artist interprets the instruction “site specific”. I have yet again been surprised by the way in which the new installation “Lancea” by Kline Swonger has capitalized on a never before used aspect of the space. Over the last few weeks Kline has engaged in a thoughtful meticulous process to bring us an installation that is both subtle and intricate. We hope to see you at the opening on Saturday June 22 from 3-6 p.m. If you can’t make the opening, the gallery will be open by appointment HERE Tuesday – Saturday 11-4 p.m." — Michael James Armstrong, ICE Gallery Related links: ICE Gallery website Kline Swonger website | Instagram Appointment link
