Thanks to everyone who came out this week to see the exhibition of political posters and movement art created in recent workshops hosted by Hope's Art of Radical Collaboration team in partnership with Dio Cramer. It was a great turnout, featuring work from more than 40 local artists!

There's nothing better than having our space alive with community! Thank you to all who attended our Spring Open House event last month. There was music by youth DJs, engagement with our programs, messages of hope created, and many connections made.

If you missed it and want to get involved, there are plenty of upcoming events to join from screenprinting and container gardening workshops to testifying at the park board.
