Thank you to our exhibition sponsors: Colby College Museum of Art, Kennebec Savings Bank, Morning Sentinel + Kennebec Journal, and Pro Moving Services.

We honor and celebrate the array of identities in our local community and broader communities, including those that are not part of the predominant culture. We hold space on our stage, our screens, and our gallery walls, in our studios, and at our community events and programs to present diverse stories, identities, and lived experiences in real and authentic ways.
