Art show in Lisbon aims to display a 'woman's perspective'
LISBON Members of the Columbiana County Democratic Women's Caucus (CCDWC) and the Lisbon community met on Friday for a free art show.
The art show, themed as "A Woman's Perspective Experienced Through Art", aimed to answer questions related to a woman's experience through artwork.
A flyer outlining the art show shared questions that those who wished to submit artwork could pull from, including:
- When we look at social phenomena, policies, processes and progress through a woman's perspective, what do we see or feel?
- How will it be different looking forward?
- How do our experiences differ from past generations?
- What have women gained and lost?
Art on display featured several different mediums of artwork, including ceramics, photography and oil painting.
One volunteer with the CCDWC, Kinsey Kandray, spoke to 21 News about the event.
"It's really just to capture what a woman's perspective in Columbiana County is, and the surrounding region. We've got really great submissions of artwork from lots of different people," said Kandray.
The art will be on display until September 26 at the CCDWC office, located at 134 South Market Street in Lisbon.
The office will be open at various times throughout the display period:
- September 13 - From 1 p.m. to 3 p.m.
