Throughout history, artists have responded to turbulent times by creating work
that speaks to the experience of the times in which they live. Today is no different.
This exhibition utilizes various mediums to depict wide-ranging themes of identity,
peace, trauma, authoritarianism, and above all, resistance.

Curated by Shannon Percoco and Katie Snyder, “Art of the Resistance”
brings a broad range of artists together to advocate for local change,
support marginalized communities, and to talk about their work
and its role as a form of resistance.

On View: January 21 - February 28
