LCCS Celebrates Black History
Month
Special to The Truth
Lucas
County Children Services brought its Black History Month to
a conclusion by sponsoring an art exhibition entitled,
“Echoes in Motion." The show featured works by many talented
artists, including Deborah Proe, Aaron S. Bivins and
Jeremiah Peterson, some of whose works appear at The Truth
Gallery. Others, including Keely Gray and Karla
Davis-McGowan contributed works from their personal art
collections.
“It’s
important that we recognize the many talented
African-American artists who live among us,“ said Marjorie
Holt, Ph.D., LCCS Minority Affairs and Inclusion
Coordinator, who organized the show. “They bring to life our
vibrant culture and history, and allow us to share it with
the broader community." Works included paintings, carvings,
quilts and traditional African artifacts. |
