Jeffry Cantu Sees Twenty50 Now

Jeffry Cantu Sees Twenty50 Now

October 2, 2024 - November 3, 2024


Jeffry Cantu


Jeffry Cantu is a Mexican American artist with a world of life-experience that brought him into the year Twenty24 where the regeneration of unscrupulous politics of power threatens self-awareness, and challenges the conscience of culture. Jeffry’s art is infused with the basis of cultural sustenance; always a reminder of what is most important, the lines, shapes, and color of cornhusk and what that signifies is almost enough to reset any trajectory. TheatreSquared’s presentation of Tony Menses’ Twenty50 directed by Rebecca Rivas has something to say about compromising one’s sense of identity, and whether there are any benefits at all to such a compromise. T2 brings us another salient, thought-provoking and wryly humorous work with Twenty50.

Kamaal Manboard & Architectonic Identity

October 4, 2024 - November 15, 2024



Architectonic Identity is a glimpse into the personal and cultural space that we inhabit. Kamaal Manboard's art invites us to stare into the personal space of his subject until the image of our own is summoned into psychological banter.

#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.
