Artists In Exile: Art as a Fabric for Healing

Join us for the closing reception of the Artists in Exile, an exhibit curated by Mary Eggers and ponsored by Common Humanity, in the Langston Room on February 28. Works from Fetun Getachew, Ataa al Baghdadi and others will be on display throughout the evening, culminating in a discussion of how art can serve to heal, its relation to belonging and homesickness, and the life of an artist living in a foreign land, featuring Mary Eggers and Fetun Gatchew.
