About the Exhibition:
Juneteenth marks the end of slavery in the United States and honors the resilience, creativity, and cultural contributions of Black communities across generations. Through gatherings, music, storytelling, dance, and art, the holiday continues to carry a living history of liberation, remembrance, and collective possibility.

Freedom Moves centers movement as both subject and method. Movement unfolds through the body in gesture, rhythm, and performance. It gathers through communities organizing, migrating, and reshaping shared space. It shifts through emotion and imagination, carrying moments that transform how we understand one another and ourselves.

This juried group exhibition features artwork by Clark County artists exploring how freedom moves across bodies, histories, cultures, and futures through a variety of artistic practices and media.

Reception Details:
Join Clark County Office of Public Arts for an evening celebrating the artists of Juneteenth: Freedom Moves. Juror Brent Holmes will announce Best in Show and Honorable Mention awards at 6:30pm. Free and open to the public.
