It highlights the cultural diversity of artwork created and exhibited within the Bronx featuring US and International Artists from 20+ Bronx arts organizations as selected by a curatorial committee.
A key focus of the exhibit is to document the uniqueness of this environment and to share creative visions that highlight these surroundings.
