In observance of Hispanic Heritage Month, Side Street Studio Arts seeks entries for ¿Estamos…?  (We Are…?)

 

This is a call for art from any artist to answer the question of identity and place in the community and is open to your interpretation: What defines you? What defines your heritage? What is an enduring trait or characteristic of you? Do you have a feeling or sentiment in response to political, economic or social concerns? How do you see yourself in the world; how do you see yourself collectively as part of a group? 

 

The exhibit is open to the public September 15 - September 30, 2023 with an opening reception Friday, September 15, 2023 from 6-9pm.
