Introducing AWARE '22: A Community Exhibition

Have you heard about a new annual exhibition coming to the Art Center this November? Aware is a community-based project that brings history, cultural diversity and community together through art. The idea is to bring awareness to a topic that affects our community but may not have the attention it deserves.

This year Aware '22 is being led by artist Maggie Kerrigan, who says about the project, "We're not trying to tell someone else's story. What we're trying to do is to bring people to the story."

In the video below, Maggie explains the inspiration behind this project and what to expect from Aware '22.
