Though distinct\, they are linked by the local community and a shared interest in the human experience. \nThis year’s cohort of artists embrace personal growth and discovery\, drawing from memory\, intuition\, interconnection\, and mythology\, as part of the creative process.

The art is meant to make you feel and explore your emotions toward a medium that could feel unfinished with something like a controlled paint drip technique rooted in abstract expressionism. Immerse yourself in the idea of imagination. \nThe art created by Dawn Tree is multi-layered and textured in symbolism involving elements like glitter\, gold leaf\, pastel\, and bright colors. This experience is meant for you to feel emotion; no specific emotion\, but feel free to explore and identify what comes up. Let it inspire you to move forward in the world stronger and more inspired to express joy within and outward. \n  \nBe sure to check out the exhibition’s full programming: \nThursday 8/10 Open Gallery from 10am-2pm and Tulsa’s Black Wall Street: A Modernized Revelation film screening 6-8pm \nFriday 8/11 Open Gallery from 10am-2pm \nSunday 8/13 Open Gallery from 11am-2pm and Tulsa’s Black Wall Street: A Modernized Revelation book signing URL:https://gridphilly.com/event/greenwood-joy-experience-exhibition-artist-talk-open-mic/ LOCATION:Bartram’s Garden Barn CATEGORIES:Arts & Performance,Free Community Events ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://gridphilly.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/DancebDawnT-eOWfk7.tmp_.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20230809T180000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20230809T193000 DTSTAMP:20260403T171652 CREATED:20230726T140941Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230726T140941Z UID:10005929-1691604000-1691609400@gridphilly.com SUMMARY:Community Conversation - Chester DESCRIPTION:Join us to share your ideas about how to improve health in Delco and how funds from the Opioid Settlement can be used to support Delco!\n\n\nCommunity Conversation\n Join us for a lively and engaging conversation about health and opioid use in Delaware County.
