Recognition Week and Community Picnic
Recognition Week will be held July 11-16th, 2022, and we are thrilled to announce our 2022 International Artist Honoree Yinka Shonibare.
Yinka Shonibare’s interdisciplinary practice uses citations of Western art history and literature to question the validity of contemporary cultural and national identities within the context of globalisation. Through examining race, class and the construction of cultural identity, his works comment on the tangled interrelationship between Africa and Europe, and their respective economic and political histories.
Be sure to reserve your table or tickets for our Recognition Week today, space is limited! This is the not-to-be-missed event of the summer.
