Artist Reception:  Friday, June 29, 2012, 6-9 pm

The Avenue 50 Studio has been commissioned by the Los Angeles County Arts Commission to curate three art exhibitions for the Violence Intervention Program Forensic Center and Community-based Assessment and Treatment Center at the newly renovated LAC+USC Medical Center Outpatient Department.  Our goal for these exhibitions is to create a welcoming and inviting space within the Clinic that reflects a comforting, engaging, humorous, or familiar theme and to use the “walls” as a space to sooth and engage the audience.  Our second objective is to utilize art to connect the LAC+USC campus with the community of artists and to our NELA neighborhood.  We are very proud to have been chosen to use art in the services of those who need it the most.

Our first exhibition, Local Color introduces our Avenue 50 Studio artists to the LAC+USC campus bringing artwork that speaks to the community through landscapes, portraits, fantasy, or abstraction.  We invite you to join us on Friday, June 29  from 6-9 and celebrate the communion of art with community.
