The free exhibition will be held during Arts After Dark at the Harn Museum of Art (3259 Hull Road, Gainesville), on Thursday, April 23, with a public reception taking place the same evening from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m.

“This one-day exhibit, presented in conjunction with Arts After Dark, provides a space for community members to share their stories and reflect on experiences that have shaped them,” said Project Coordinator Cassandra Moore in a press release. “This year’s theme, The Power of Advocacy, highlights the strength that comes from speaking one’s truth.”
