Art for All Exhibition Reception: UP CLOSE & PERSONAL

Join us for the Genesis Society Art for All Reception of our inaugural art exhibition, UP CLOSE & PERSONAL. The theme challenged Queens-based artists to show us the enlightening perspective an artist brings to the subject matter, by bringing focus to the unseen and overlooked. 

The evening will be a fun cultural event combining the talents of artists, dancers, poets and musicians.  In addition to the exhibition there will be a silent auction of selected artwork, performances and refreshments.

Please help us spread the word -- tell your family and friends AND bring as many people as you like!
