Perspectives of Independence OPENING
Friday, December 12, 2025 | 6–8 PM
ART EXHIBIT OPENING NIGHT: Perspectives of Independence
Exhibit on View: December 12, 2025 – February 4, 2026
Join us for the opening reception of Perspectives of Independence, a powerful and imaginative exhibition inspired by the upcoming 250th Anniversary of the Signing of the Declaration of Independence. This multi-media show brings together artists from across the region to explore one essential question:
“What does independence mean to you?” Is it liberty? Identity? Responsibility? Self-determination? Community? Experience a wide range of visual interpretations—bold, poetic, personal, and profound—as we celebrate the many dimensions of independence in our lives and in our nation.
The evening will include:
• Meet-the-Artists conversations
• Music and light refreshments
• Interactive activities that invite guests to reflect on their own independence
This event is free and open to the public. All are welcome!
