Thursday. Nov. 12th- Shame to Pride by Stephanie Calvert
To create this series, Stephanie returned to her childhood home, an abandoned schoolhouse, and used materials that her parents hoarded over the years. This project is about using art to process her past, come to terms with her present, and transform her shame into self-acceptance.
Opening reception, on November 12th starting at 6:30pm.
