ART AS RESISTANCE – OPENING RECEPTION - MAY 7, 2026
Throughout history, art has been an act of resistance—challenging power, confronting injustice, preserving culture, and amplifying silenced voices.
From **Diego Rivera, Frida Kahlo, Jacob Lawrence, Goya, Faith Ringgold, Ai Weiwei, Banksy, Keith Haring, Kara Walker**—to today’s emerging voices—this exhibition continues that legacy.

🌍 Join us as we celebrate artists using their work to speak truth, inspire change, and imagine the future.

Opening Reception: May 7
5PM – 8PM Underground Gallery @ Create Wellspring**
Appetizers and wine will be served

Experience powerful art, poetry & music, exploring:
• Social & political struggle
• Injustice & resistance
• Identity & culture
• Activism & movements
• Hope, healing & the future
Be present. Be inspired. Be part of the conversation.
