Creating a shared space for introspection anddialogue. I ask the viewer to see through someone else’s eyes\, to walk in another’s shoes. Toaccept the “other.” To reject divisiveness. To promote acceptance and understanding and toreject violence and subjugation of anyone anywhere. To give voice to the voiceless\, to heal\, andto reflect in our shared humanity.” \n\n\n\nThank you to Sarah Gordon for her assistance with this event! \n\n\n\nAdmission: \n\n\n\n\nArtTable Members $10\n\n\n\nGuests $20\n\n\n\n\nNot a member?
