Physics and Art unite at Parallel Universe

Looking for a little intellectual creativity? Check out Parallel Universe on Saturday, which is August 15.

Instead of simply looking at art, a panel of speakers will discuss the impact of physics and art by artists, scientists and collectors.

But that's not all. You'll also get to enjoy great art, listen to live music from Harmonic Tonic and munch on snacks while sipping on beverages.

So are you ready to be wowed into a new universe? I am. That's because this thing is bigger than you might think. In fact, 60 artists collaborated to create an "Exquisite Corpse" integrating their individual art pieces into a whole work of art incorporating their 'Parallel Universes.'

And here's the coolest part (aside from the panel). The artists also created 60 unique universes, while pursuing the connections between art and quantum physics. I can't wait to see what they have come up with.

Here's how the night's going to look:

-- Panel discussion 4 p.m. to 5 p.m.

-- Opening artist reception at Winter Street Gallery & Open Studios 5p.m. to 10 p.m.

-- Music By Harmonic Tonic 6:30 p.m. to 9:30 pm.

The event is free.
