I have spent the last few weeks – along with my ArtPlace colleagues and many of you – heavy hearted and reflecting on how recent violent and tumultuous events have affected the communities we support across the country. Several responses – many of them by artists – have helped me make sense of these times, reflect, and find hope. I am sharing some of those creative responses here, giving you the opportunity to see them perhaps in a different light, or to discover them for the first time.
Best,
Sarah
