HYDE PARK — The Hyde Park Art Center is ready to show what happens when you put a bunch of artists in a room together with curator Jim Dempsey for nine weeks.
The art center, 5020 S. Cornell Ave., will host a reception for the “Continuous Span” exhibit from 6:30-8 p.m. Thursday, with artist talks starting at 7 p.m.
