PRESS RELEASE:
“BRINGING THE WORLD TOGETHER THROUGH ART”
Opening Reception: Dec 6th 4-7pm
Local, National and International Artists
There has never been a time where the world needs unity and hope more than now. Economic, healthcare and environmental crisis, extradition of US citizens, a war on terror, a rapidly shrinking middle class and numerous other issues are everywhere you look. Art has always been a voice of unity, knowing no boundaries and creating no discrimination in ethnicity, background, intellect or economic advantage. Art is open is anyone. It is, at its roots, deeply personal and at the same time, made for the masses. Art invites everyone to question and interpret its message. To be open minded.
The iO gallery has issued an open call to artists that we represent, artists of any and all backgrounds and mediums, well established and emerging, as well as the local community to create small works with a positive message for change. Paintings, sculpture, sketches, mixed media, music, writing and poetry are all welcome.
All art will be $500 and under. Together we can make a difference for continued positive change!
Artist’s Reception Dec 6th 4-7pm
Show runs through Dec 21st.
Hours/ Thurs-Mon 12-5pm
