2021 Year of Artivism | Art Making a Difference

Upcoming mission-driven programs connect our community through creativity

In May we present, Black Matter, an exhibition curated by guest curator and artist, Tammy Jo Wilson. The exhibit begins to address the imbalance of representation in the arts, as it lifts up the contributions of Black artists above systematic oppression in life and in art. Learn more about Oregon's history of widespread chronic racial injustice during Oregon Black History, with Walidah Imarisha, Tuesday, January 19, 7 pm (PST). Imarisha's powerful presentation is hosted by partners Corvallis-Benton County Public Library and the NAACP Corvallis/Albany Branch. Register Here for this virtual webinar >
