We’re LIVE!
Rich in color and abstraction, INCLUDE seeks to define the deeper levels of inclusion, connection, and relationship. As you take this wonderful visual journey, this show will provide an amazing opportunity to discover new, fresh, and culturally relevant artists from the Washington, D.C. Metro area.
Guest curated by Marlon Powell, this group showcase sets out to prove that fine art should not be reserved for only a select few or the social elite. Visual art has many languages, incorporates many different perspectives and stories from diverse backgrounds, and its voice should be communicated and heard by all. Visual art should be experienced and enjoyed by all groups on all levels.
