Event Navigation
We’re thrilled to announce a series of public programs surrounding the Think Freedom art installation, on display in the historic Dayton Arcade’s Rotunda during the 2025 NATO Parliamentary Assembly. This marks the installation’s first appearance in the United States.
Created by Sarajevo-based artist Edina Seleskovic, Think Freedom is a multidisciplinary project that combines sculpture, light, text, and technology to convey messages of peace and unity. Having traveled to 22 cities worldwide, its presence in Dayton commemorates the 30th anniversary of the Dayton Peace Accords.
Join Culture Works at the Dayton Arcade for a chance to view and interact with Think Freedom, accompanied by performances from a variety of local musicians.
Tuesday, May 27 through Friday, May 30 5:00 – 8:00 PM each evening Dayton Arcade, 35 W. Fourth St. Learn More: https://cultureworks.org/
