Opening March 8th, International Women's Day, will be an invitational exhibition of 50 local and national artists on the theme of Giving Shelter. This is in conjunction with The Cradle Project, a fund-raising art installation for orphaned children in sub-Saharan Africa. The vision of The Cradle Project is to utilize the symbolism of empty cradles to represent the lost potential of these orphans. Giving Shelter explores the theme of sale shelter, refuge and sacred space. Curator Deborah Gavel says "We are interested in creatively coming together as an artistic community to bring awareness to a global concern through art". There are also many special programs throughout the month.
