Artistic expression is inherently shaped by cultural influences and personal experiences within a given society. Haiti is no exception to this rule. In response to this cultural dynamic, the non-profit organization, New Vision Art School, located in Port-au-Prince, Haiti was established to address a community need. It serves as a safe haven for children, offering them the opportunity to enjoy in workshops, channel their creativity, embark on educational journeys to museums and other art-related institutions, and fosters a supportive community where parents can connect and receive assistance.
This pop-up exhibition is a showcase of the artistic creations by children who have benefited from of this organization. This exhibition would not be posable without the loan of artwork from the Hatcher-Levinger Family collection.
