This exhibition confronts us with the undeniable realities of our complex world. The artists presented in this exhibition utilize video, painting, and installation to explore themes of war, displacement, political injustices, and the legacies of colonialism. The artworks invite viewers to engage with uncomfortable truths and serve as tools for sparking dialogue, fostering empathy, and igniting a sense of responsibility within us.
We are thrilled to offer Global Gardens another CSA pick up location for the upcoming season. A CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) is a summer-long subscription for a weekly bag full of fresh, spray-free, locally grown veggies grown by refugee farmers here in the Treasure Valley. By joining a Global Gardens CSA, you are supporting small-scale farmers, strengthening our local food system, and guaranteeing yourself some of the healthiest, tastiest produce around.
