Artful Connections Art Reception– Thursday, May 8th at 5:00PM

The Darwin R. Barker Library is excited to announce our next art exhibition, “Artful Connections:  A Celebration of Art from Aspire of WNY iXpress Artists and their Facilitators.”
 
At the heart of this exhibition are the remarkable creations by Aspire of WNY’s iXpress artists who, under the guidance of their dedicated art facilitators, have crafted pieces that are both meaningful and deeply personal. Each piece is a testament to the powerful connections formed between them, reflecting their shared experiences, growth, and artistic expression.
 
“Artful Connections” is not just an art show; it is a celebration of community, diversity, and the transformative power of art.
 
Opening Reception: Thursday, May 8th 5-7pm
Exhibition Dates: May 1 – June 30
Venue: Darwin R. Barker Library, Fredonia, NY
 
We invite art enthusiasts, community members, and supporters to explore the vibrant and heartfelt artworks that tell the story of collaboration and creative exploration.
