Flashback to February, where we gathered in support of Liberation Gallery + Studios.

Liberation Gallery + Studios is one of the spaces supported through Studio Lab, a project of Gateway CDC focused on connecting artists in the Gateway Arts District with the resources needed to secure, build, and sustain their own studios.

Building and sustaining creative spaces requires more than vision, it takes community.

Showing up. Supporting. Investing. This is how we fortify our creative ecosystem and ensure it continues to grow.
