The Virginia Tech Perspective Gallery, located within the Squires Student Center, presents the Opening Reception for "Celebrate Black Love" on Friday, January 20, 2023.
Enjoy our annual show celebrating Dr. Martin Luther King and Black history month.
This year's Black love theme is "Celebrate" and highlights the artwork of Timi Taiwo, a third-year student of architecture at Virginia Tech along with art from regional school aged students. Timi says "his artistic journey has continued to push him into spaces of refinery, experimentation, and storytelling which have well equipped him to create work that brings people together to celebrate their oneness rather than their differences." Timi has shared a story about each of the artworks in this show, giving insight to his inspiration and allowing us a moment to pause and think about the ideas he is sharing.
Admission is free and open to the public.
The exhibit will be on display from January 17th through February 26th.
Gallery hours are Monday from 6:00-9:00 PM, Tuesday-Saturday from 12:00-9:00 PM and Sunday from 1:00-5:00 PM.
