#repost @studiomontclair ・・・ Get your face m #repost @studiomontclair ・・・ Get your face mask cleaned, ironed and filter changed for our in person art opening, “Privilege, Power and Everyday Life”. 😁 Sunday, January 17 from 2 to 4:30pm at our gallery. A ZOOM reception and curator talk will be on Thursday, January 21 at 7PM. 🖼 “Privilege, Power and Everyday Life” features artwork that encourages dialog about implicit bias and stereotypes. Our hope is to make the invisible, visible as a path towards a more inclusive culture. https://www.studiomontclair.org - - - #studiomontclair #montclairnj #uppermontclair #fineart #paintings #artgallery #artexhibition #montclairnjartist #montclairbid #studiomontclairgallery #essexcountynj #montclaircenterbid #montclaircenter #smiexhibit
