Karolyn Farrell, Amy Eichler


The art exhibition, Calm before Chaos, features a series of works by Karolyn Farrell with selected pieces by Amy Eichler. These visual narratives serve as a meditation on temporal dislocation—capturing the fragile threshold between the familiar and the forgotten. The exhibition reflects quotidian tranquility that becomes fragmented recollections of memory that will be a historical past that recedes beyond the limits of individual and collective imagination.

#NWAJuneteenth 2021 Exhibition

#NWAJuneteenth is a virtual gallery of video exhibitions by local and regional Black artists who continue to work for freedom in America. Several of them have answered the question, “what does Juneteenth mean to me?” It is great to hear what they know, and we can find familiarity in their experiences. Their answers are much like that of other American Black families.

Importantly, the artwork attests to the role of artists in building strength in community and culture.
