Join us for the opening reception of the 2nd annual Student Art Exhibition celebrating Asian American & Pacific Islander Heritage Month! This exhibit showcases the creativity of K-12 students from Memphis and Shelby County, who have crafted inspiring pieces honoring AAPI culture. Under the theme "Celebrate AAPI Stories, Traditions, and Identity," the artwork reflects the rich diversity and experiences of the AAPI community as well as AAPI cultural influence more broadly.
Top entries not only receive prizes but are also featured in this special community exhibit on view from April 28th through May 16th, allowing young artists to share their voices and perspectives. The opening reception on May 7th will provide the opportunity to congratulate the student winners. Refreshments will be provided.
