OFFICIAL OPENING: ‘You & Me’ at UMI Arts
“You & Me” is a highly curated group exhibition featuring UMI Arts member artists, held at the beginning of each year. The exhibition aims to showcase the artistic passion and poetic strength involved in preserving and sharing First Nations stories in a unique and compelling way. Together, our voices carry more weight, ensuring that future generations honour and maintain our traditions and culture. This year, the exhibition will feature fifteen acrylic paintings on canvas from six established First Nations artists.
Come and join us on Friday 7th March to celebrate the talented artists and explore a stunning collection of new artworks!
