Join us on June 6 for the First Friday opening reception of “Soft Parts”, an exhibition of work by Grey Von Cannon. About the work, Grey shares: “As a queer person in an ongoing search for belonging, my understanding of home has evolved from a rooted physical place and collected objects to the body I inhabit. …Often viewed as “too much,” I intentionally create from a place of abundance. Bright colors, imperfect shapes, and vibrant patterns come together to explore themes of holding and being held.” ➡️ Learn more about Grey and her work here: https://newcityarts.org/exhibitions/grey-von-cannon 🥂 As always, this event is free and open to the public. Snacks, wine, and seltzer will be available throughout the night. A special thanks to William Taylor and the Taylor Group of Trust Investment Services for sponsoring this exhibition opening and to The Spread and the Dave Matthews Band at the Charlottesville Area Community Foundation for supporting this exhibition. “Soft Parts” will be on view at Welcome Gallery from June 6-25, 2025.
