we can feel comfort, engage in thoughtful contemplation, and experience a sense of security. Sanctuaries come in many forms, whether they be physical places, metaphysical states of mind, or places of human connection. We invite artists to show their version of Haven, beckoning viewers into these sanctuaries, and revealing the profound impact of these spaces through various mediums and techniques.

We believe that it is crucial to create a space for productive and thought-provoking discussions about the future of our country. In this bold exhibition, we encourage artists from all disciplines to explore the curiosities that bud from the current state of American politics. We are interested in the diverse narratives that come from art making in our contemporary political landscape. Through your artistic reflections, we hope to harness the power of creativity to ignite conversations, challenge perspectives, and identify common threads. In embracing this taboo theme of politics, we are asserting and strongly believe that art has the potential to transcend ideological boundaries and stimulate dialogue that can drive our community forwards.
