Cottonwood Center for the Arts

Cottonwood Center for the Arts is pleased to announce an exhibition in our main galleries for the month of June, presented by University of Colorado - Anschutz Medical Center: Hear/Say
From the Exhibition Coordinator / Curator: Through shared narratives and diverse viewpoints, we invite you to join us as Hear/Say dismantles stereotypes, fosters empathy, and amplifies voices that have long been marginalized. Our focus on high concentration cannabis use traverses various contexts – from medical treatment to recreational indulgence – prompting reflection on the delicate balance between anecdotal testimony, empirical research, and the particular harms that can occur for youth, pregnant and parenting people. Join us as we navigate the contours of this controversy, harnessing the power of art to shed light on the unspoken truths.
In the pursuit of public health, we are called upon to navigate the complexities of evidence, policy, and societal values. Through dialogue, collaboration, and artistry, this exhibition becomes not only a platform for empowerment but also a catalyst for change. Join us as we confront controversy, challenge norms, and elevate the voices of those whose stories deserve to be heard.



Come experience this exhibit and enjoy two floors of open studios + galleries this First Friday from 5-8 pm, and all month during normal business hours.

This open mic welcomes any writer of any level and also welcomes any of the performative arts! We would love it if you came and read / performed your work with us -- each month of the open mic is on a certain theme, a theme we vote on each month. Each participant&nbsp;is allowed up to seven minutes, but you do not have to take up the full seven minutes of course. All are welcome to attend as well, you do not need to read in order to come, we love&nbsp;our crowd participants just as much :) We do our open mic each month, typically on the third Friday of the month.&nbsp;
If you want to perform you will sign up at the start of the event! Once you walk into the main gallery of Cottonwood you will see a sign up table.&nbsp;
If you have any questions please reach out to our host: Jacqueline Moulton (<a href="mailto:jmoulton@idsva.edu" target="_blank">jmoulton@idsva.edu</a>)
See you there!
