This multimedia art exhibition celebrates the transformative power of food as a fundamental human right. Artists from around the world share vibrant, inspiring visions of global food security, community resilience, and sustainable nutrition. Through diverse artistic mediums, "Nourish" illuminates innovative solutions, human connection, and the collective potential to create a world where no one goes hungry.
Let's not just fight hunger. Let's uplift, focus on and spread more light on that which nourishes. We confront the global challenge of hunger through creative expression. Artists from diverse backgrounds will explore themes of food justice, agricultural sustainability, community resilience, and human dignity. Bring all visual art, including fiber arts, painting, sculpture, photography, short film/video, and music. This exhibition is about food that nourishes the body, brightens and enlivens the spirit. "Nourish" transforms the conversation about world hunger from a problem of scarcity to a vision of collective possibility and hope. Each artwork serves as a powerful testament to human potential and the fundamental right to sustenance and joy.
