Celebrate the opening of Color of Hope, a powerful mixed-media exhibition exploring the resilience, emotion, and shared humanity that unite us all.
Created by a Middle Eastern woman and immigrant artist, this collection features 20–25 pieces blending acrylic, watercolor, ink, and pastel to portray themes of desperation, anxiety, hope, war, and peace. Through vivid color and expressive texture, each piece offers a story of survival and connection — a reflection on empathy, inclusion, and cultural understanding within our shared community.
Join us for the opening reception to meet the artist, experience the work firsthand, and engage in meaningful conversation about the beauty and strength of human endurance.
