Chroma Collective Interactive Concert: Hearing & Creating Art with LRU

Chroma Collective Interactive Concert: Hearing & Creating Art with LRU

 
 

Free Admission!

In collaboration with the Hickory Museum of Art, Chroma Collective presents an hour-long interactive concert that invites audience members to respond in real time to the music and tap into their inner artist.

Chroma Collective blends music and visual art in engaging and accessible ways, performing in classrooms, concert halls, libraries, and community spaces. Their programs highlight historically marginalized composers and are designed to help participants discover their own creativity. As the ensemble performs, audience members are encouraged to create artwork inspired by the music—painting, drawing, or experimenting with color, texture, and rhythm.

Through their unique chamber instrumentation of two trumpets and soprano/piano, Chroma Collective transforms each performance into an immersive, collaborative experience. The group’s mission is to make the act of creation approachable and enjoyable for all ages and backgrounds—no prior knowledge of music or art required.

This project is supported by a grant from Arts Culture Catawba.
