HEALING IN THE RIVERWAY:
NEW PHOTOGRAPHY FROM NORTHWEST PASSAGE
September 30 - November 1
Closing reception: October 30 from 6-8 pm
Experience the healing power of nature as the residents of Northwest Passage debut their most recent terrestrial and underwater photographs. In addition to stunning environmental photographs, the exhibit will feature unique portraits of the artists, superimposed with scenes from nature that hold special meaning for them. Through Northwest Passage’s Artist-in-Residence program, professional artists were able to help youth who are struggling with mental health issues find beauty in the world that surrounds them, and in themselves.
