Opening Reception: John Wiehe presents “Connecting Past with Present: The Never-Ending Struggle for Civil Rights”
Friday, January 14, 2022
The public is invited to attend an opening reception for the Art Gallery. Light refreshments provided. John Wiehe is a self-taught artist who brings to life his project by using oils to create portraitures of civil rights leaders.
The project is a collection of portraits that also includes a brief biography of the influential civil rights leaders spanning from enslavement to contemporary times. His hope is that the exhibit will inspire others to learn more about the history and effects of racism.
