The exhibit’s opening reception is at the Red Herring Lounge on Monday, May 2, 5 p.m. Anyone can pick up one of the DAI’s disposable cameras at the opening to document the 2016 festival and turn in their cameras by Sunday, May 8, at either the Duluth Art Institute Depot site or the Red Herring Lounge.
