The Snake River Alliance helped artists from around the world learn about nuclear contamination at the Idaho National Laboratory, and their work can be seen in Holding What Can’t be Held, an exhibition at Boise’s Ming Studios (420 S 6th St) through Saturday, February 4.
On Wednesday, January 18, from 7 to 9 pm Alliance nuclear program director Beatrice Brailsford will be at Ming Studios to talk about the history of nuclear contamination in Idaho, radioactive “cleanup” efforts at the Idaho National Laboratory, current nuclear threats, and what we can do to help keep Idaho safe from further radioactive contamination. Come learn about the dangers and see artists’ responses to them.
