We invite you to contribute to our exhibit “We the Artists” at The Confluence. The show will run April 14 – May 30.

Consider using the power of art to tell stories and raise awareness. Through visual art we want you to think about how art can promote change. Use your art to express interest in important issues of our time, give power to voice, or maybe you will want to speak for those less able to speak for themselves? Ask yourself if we can transform our world with art? Some of us believe art can be a way to show a new or different way to see our world. As an artist, do you want to raise awareness, speak to human rights issues, celebrate social and cultural issues, advocate for a perspective or point of view? Let us see what you feel deeply about. Speak with your art!
