Outsiders and Others, "Power to The People," 2020

What was originally planned as a protest art show by self-taught artists has now become a community based exhibition featuring works by both self-taught and trained artists, of all age groups, of all abilities, with works that are protest based and not. 

An open “call for artists” was made public for this exhibition, Power to the People. It was intended to be an opportunity for self-taught artists to share the work they have been making in response to the world we live in today and to share their opinions about it. In looking through the work that came in, it became evident that this is an opportunity to show a huge variety of artwork by an eclectic array of talent that may or may not have shown their work before. 

All twenty-one artists that applied are included in this exhibition. These artists are Althea Adams, Nina Alderwood, Carl Baird, Lisa Marie Bellano, Eduardo Rodriguez Calzado, Bryan Cathcart, Sidi Chen, Rojina Farrokhnjead, Brooklyn Fink, Kevin Harney, Michelle Ibaraki, Sarina Joy, Sunroop Kaur, Signe Knutson and Fred Cheezo, Margaret Ostrowski, Ben Roback, Luke Scales, Seema Shah, Mary Sousa, Doris Williams, and Jeremy Zupp.
