PROJECT DIANA

The name Project Diana comes from a 1946 NASA mission that projected radio waves into space. These waves broke through the ionosphere, echoed off the moon and then returned to Earth.

NASA did not know what would happen when they sent those radio waves out, but this experimental NASA mission became proof that humans could travel into space.

At the Alice we are interested in this same kind of projection... sending art out into the world without knowing how it will be received. Project Diana is a space for local artists to experiment and try things that they have never done or have been scared to do.
