About this event

  • Event lasts 2 hours

Join us for the Opening Reception of Transformative Impact in the Longwood Art Gallery located at BCA Headquarters in Westchester Square (2700 East Tremont Avenue, Bronx, NY, 10461).

Transformative Impact is an exhibition that showcases the powerful ways in which four contemporary Bronx artists engage with their communities through socially and environmentally conscious art making. Confronting urgent issues, such as environmental migration, gender equality, and systemic injustice, these artists transform creative practice into a catalyst for awareness, dialogue, and meaningful change.

Bronx Council on the Arts

Founded by visionary community leaders in 1962, The Bronx Council on the Arts (BCA) is a pioneer in advancing cultural equity in The Bronx. From our early beginnings as a presenter of affordable arts programming in select Bronx neighborhoods, we have grown into a cultural hub that serves the entire creative ecosystem of the borough.  Our programs serve artists, the public, and the field at large by building connections, providing resources, and advocating for equitable practices. Then as now, we focus on supporting the work of underrepresented groups – especially artists of color, women, and members of the LGBTQ+ community. Through this lens we offer affordable programs for seniors and youth, and provide direct services to over 1,000 artists and 250 community-based arts groups each year.
