About the Exhibit
In an effort to continue building artistic bridges throughout the community, the Downing-Gross Cultural Arts Center held its second iteration of “A Space of Our Own” in September 2020. During this exhibition, guest curator Anthony Wardrett and select artists displayed their incredibly diverse artworks created during our Open Studio Sessions. Throughout the exhibition, the public voted for their favorite pieces and one of the top finishers, 8-year-old Gracie Eriks, was chosen as the winner of the solo exhibition prize. Instead of just displaying her artwork, Gracie wants to share this experience with kids all across Hampton Roads. Thus, we present to you “FUN!” (Finding Urself Now)- an exhibition featuring youth artists who use art as a vehicle of joy, exploration, and expression.
