Nuwu Art Collective: Bridges

The Bridges exhibition consists of Nuwu Art Collective artists Juan Cuevas (Quetzal Visions), Xochil Xitlalli (Xochil Art), Sol Martinez, Brent Holmes, Ashanti McGee, Fawn Douglas, Avis Charley, and Danger Villao. Each of these exhibiting artists responds to the theme of building bridges in the community through art and materiality.

The Nuwu Art + Activism Center is a POC-owned and operated space in Las Vegas, Nevada, that works to uplift all communities through strengthening cultural knowledge and identity through the arts, activism, and education. They advocate for the equity of our respective and collective communities through an ongoing process of decolonization and celebration of our rich cultural heritages.

On exhibit at West Las Vegas Library from November 2, 2023 through January 16, 2024
