WHAT DOES ACWR MEAN TO YOU?
As an emerging artist the ACWR has been such a great resource. I have been able to be apart of shows, curate and put together my own shows through the programs they offer. Having a space available to artists at little to no cost is something that not only is needed but also has a great impact on the artist’s community. By opening up the gallery to almost anybody it offers marginalized artists a place to show and share their work. I am excited to see more programming, workshops and artist opportunities. Being apart of the ACWR allows me to help support and give back to the community and programs by simply being a member.
