In honor of Bonnaroo officially starting today, here’s some photos from 2023 and 2024 when we hosted an art show, spoke on multiple panels, and facilitated various creative activities in Bonnaroo’s Planet Roo!🌈

In 2024, Daybreak Artist, Bandy, even joined us to share about our mission and impact!

We’ve met so many amazing nonprofits and people in Planet Roo (including Pawster who we’re building a future collaboration with❤️). Good luck to all the nonprofits there this weekend! And thank you Bonnaroo for building a place for nonprofits and those making a difference to shine☀️

Last Saturday we participated in three events: Summer Reuse Fest, Summer of Soul’d, and the Madison Art Crawl.🖼️☀️

As an artist who primarily works with and enjoys repurposing recycled materials, Daybreak artist Beth led our booth at TGCR’s Reuse Fest, where she displayed and sold her work! ♻️ These photos capture some highlights from the day!

Thank you to all of our exhibition partners and volunteers for helping make these events possible!

Thank you to the for inviting our organization and artists to exhibit during this year’s annual Community Partner Art Show.✨🖼️

Tonight marked a special milestone as our new Art Logistics Manager, .sabeth, curated her very first Daybreak exhibition—thoughtfully selecting works inspired by the light, color, and beauty of the Frist’s current Impressionist collection, from Monet to Matisse.😍✨ We absolutely loved how it turned out, and we’re so proud of all of the talented artists with all of the Frist’s community partners.🎨💛
