Exhibit asks artists to pack for a new age

How and what does one pack for beginning a journey into — according to the ancient Mayan timekeepers — a new 26,000-year cycle?

A new art exhibit at the Percolator Artspace, 913 Rhode Island St., aims to explore the question and celebrate the new age.

The Percolator asked artists, “What are you willing to let go of, and what do you want to bring with you into the new year and the new age?”

The resulting “Baggage Show,” which opened Friday, will be on display through Jan. 20. It will be open during this week’s Final Fridays, from 5-9 p.m. Friday, at the Percolator.
