  • Wednesday, Feb. 19 – ART& THE NATURAL WORLD (6:30 p.m.)

The event also revisits themes from a pivotal 2018 discussion on the evolving role of the arts in civic life.
  • Friday, Feb. 21 – ART& THE NEW GARDE (6:30 p.m.)
    “ROOTS AND REALMS,” a solo exhibition by Rugiyatou Ylva Jallow, explores identity, cultural belonging, and personal narrative through bold self-portraits using acrylic, oil paint, and intricate threadwork.
