As part of Dayton Metro Library’s celebration of Juneteenth, the Library welcomes a traveling exhibit, What’s New?, from the African American Visual Artists Guild (AAVAG), that will be on display in the 2nd Floor Gallery of the Main Library through Thursday, June 30.
What’s New? is the fourth project for the AAVAG under their Exposition Through Art Program (ETAP), which celebrates the ideas, places, personalities, and facts of the AAVAG community. What’s New? specifically focuses on both a visual and written view of its artists – representing “what is new” in their lives, the community they live in, their world of art, and/or any new viewpoints the artists may have developed regarding social, political, and religious ideals.
Additionally, DML will host Artists Talk at Bassani Theater on Thursday, June 13, from 6-8:30 pm at the Main Library, in the Bassani Theater Off Third, 3rd Floor. AAVAG artists Andrea Cummings, Nathan Connor, Clarice Moore, and Cedric McGhee will discuss the various themes found in their artwork that is included in the AAVAG’s traveling exhibit. Moderated by DML’s Karen D. Brame from Special Collections, this program is for all ages.
