ART FROM THE INSIDE

Dr. Gussak and some of the AFTI family, artists, and supporters from Sunday’s powerful event!

You're Invited: Shifting Perspectives Closing Reception

When: Sunday, April 27th | 3:00–4:30 PM
Where: Cargill Gallery & Doty Board Room (N-280)
Minneapolis Central Library, 300 Nicollet Mall

As Shifting Perspectives comes to a close, we invite you to join us one final time to experience the power of art to heal, connect, and challenge the way we see ourselves and others.

Our Closing Reception on Sunday, April 27th from 3:00–4:30 PM is a moment to celebrate the artists, share community reflections, and honor the transformative journey this exhibit has sparked.

Our last event was truly unforgettable—featuring a powerful conversation with Dr. Dave Gussak, Professor of Art Therapy at Florida State University, and the incredible facilitators of our Art and Wellness program. Together, they offered profound insight into how creative expression inside correctional facilities can lead to real healing and new beginnings. The room was filled with emotion, connection, and a deep sense of purpose.

Support the artists by purchasing their work!
Let’s come together once more to honor these stories, uplift the artists, and witness the lasting impact of their creativity.

Exodus 3:8 by Cheryl "Mistori" Albert

16” x 20” (2 pieces)

Medium: acrylic paint, watercolor paints, gel pens, fine tip pen, charcoal

The inspiration for this piece is America as the promised land it once was. A safe haven of opportunity for those in the pursuit of happiness. The example to the world that humanity and progress exist. My connection to this piece lies in solidarity with all women around the world who are brutalized, marginalized, and overlooked.

Contemptuous by LoLo

16” x 20”

Medium: Acrylic on canvas panel

The idea for this painting was to show contempt in a non-threatening, beautiful way. What better than a beautiful female image! I did not want to insult, but to show a rebellious contempt with the hands, so I used the horns where the birds would usually be. The tongue also reinforces the contempt in a non threatening way, once again without using the eyes. This is a painting of Olivia Rodrigo. Image produced by Tsuruda Studio.

Hidden Retreat by Kayleene Greniger

16” x 20”

Medium: Acrylic paint

Sometimes being around so many people all the time I feel like I need a place in the woods with a nice view of nearby mountains and lots of wild animals and critters. Maybe a little fire, and a special somebody. Then just enjoy the connection of nature.
