This year has been all about overcoming. Challenges that have no ethnicity or nationality, COVID first among these. Bigotry that also sadly knows no geographic boundaries, countered by the global resurgence of Black Lives Matter. And divisiveness and hatred that are 100% American. Think the Presidential election and, top of mind right now, the two Georgia Senate runoffs next Tuesday. ART IN THE TIME OF CORONAVIRUS, our current show, features not only NATALIE HOPE MCDONALD’s iconic portraiture but her inspiring renditions of button art that crosses generational lines without missing a beat. May 2021 be a year when we can say, “We Have Overcome,” from vaccines and listening to scientists to the most widely embraced Juneteenth and action leading to true change — change for the sake of generations yet to come. (And now, on a lighter note, we’re turning on Netflix and tuning into DEATH TO 2020....)
