Viva Fall River

Escape Through Art Exhibition

The Ignition Space 44 Troy Street, Fall River, MA, United States

Samantha Charles, a recipient of FRACC's 2024 Ignition Fund Grant brings her vision to life at the Ignition Space’s 1923 Room. This exhibition is an open diary that Samantha is sharing with the world. It explains how she’s come to love art through her family and friends and invites others to use art as an outlet to navigate their thoughts and emotions. Learn about Samantha’s story through her mixed-media art and how art doesn’t have to be perfect in order to be powerful or meaningful. This project is supported in part by FRACC through the TDI Creative Catalyst Grant. The Fall River Arts & Culture Coalition Program is administered by Mass Development and funded by the Barr Foundation.

You and the kids will be given an overview of safety rules & "how to's" of hurling hatchets by one of our amazing throwing coaches. Then you will have 1-2 hours of fun in one of our throwing pits. Grab a pizza or some subs on your way in to round out your family time. Parents are always amazed at how the kids put their phones down and don't touch them the whole time they are here. Book a 1-hour for 2-4 throwers or a 2-hour for 5-10 throwers. Special reduced pricing for kids 10-15 years of age. No alcohol allowed parents, so leave the beers at home please.
