Pawns For Progress - Newburgh Art Exhibition

Voices Across The Board Inc. is looking to host a community art exhibition to showcase local Newburgh creatives and artist. Our awesome project is looking to give the surrounding public especially those who draw, spray paint, build sculptures, and paint on various canvases a free and safe place to express themselves and to collaborate with one another. The event would take place on Saturday September 21st, 2024, from 12:00pm-7:00pm which allows for both kids and adults of all ages to attend. At the venue we are looking to have several art works displayed as well as a live spray-painted artwork. To shine more light onto the artist in the community, additionally we will be interviewing each artist for 15mins. These collections of interviews will be aired as a podcast episode on Wednesday September 24th, 2024, at 11:59am. At Voices Across The Board Inc we believe that all voices have power and meaning so seeing the art work on display shows directly that this can be achieved because the artist did it, which has a lasting impact on all ages. But we believe it’s equally important to hear why they did it which can bring a greater awareness to both the artist and education to the individual viewing the masterpiece. Lastly, we will be providing both food and drinks at the art exhibit for all those in attendance. This awesome project not only benefits the artist but the community at large. By offering refreshments and food it draws most if not all in instantly through the doors. We believe this event tackles a host of Newburgh’s common issues for this 7-hour period. By feeding and providing a safe environment for everyone, the community is directly and indirectly impacted. Based on statistics Assault and Robbery are two of the four leading violent crimes reporting in the city. https://www.neighborhoodscout.com/ny/newburgh/crime By holding this event it offers a fun, educational and above all else safe place to be on a Saturday when typically, crime is at its highest
