Tangible Hope: Hidden 2 will be included in the exhibit Turnout (Mid-Term Election Show) at the GEM Center for the Arts, in Boise, Idaho.

"Turnout is an exhibition timed to coincide with this year’s mid-term election. The phrase turnout refers to the historically low voter turnout in 2016’s presidential elections, and the hope that we will do better this year. It also refers to the act of turning out a naughty child’s pockets or turning an unwanted guest out of the house.
The artwork included in Turnout addresses current political issues that are relevant to the mid-term elections such as identity politics and civil rights, environmental protections, access to/sale of public lands, immigration, healthcare, separation of church and state, the military industrial complex/foreign policy."
Turnout was curated by Eric Mullis and Kelly Cox.
