Art Reveals..ArtHeals..Art Transforms!
Join us as we celebrate the 2024 publication of Dragonfly arts magazine by bringing together incredible artists, poets and musicians for an evening of sharing, connection and joy!
There will be a poetry reading, gallery walk and for the first time featured musicians!
All of our incredible artists offer reflections on life, love, trauma, justice, renewal, and hope.
This FREE in-person evening provides a dynamic opportunity to experience the power of words and the vital role that the arts provide in promoting healing, awareness, and change.
