We are moved by the ideals of equality and freedom at the heart of their revolutionary struggle. And we are dedicated to supporting them by amplifying their collective voice.</p> <p>To show how a new generation of Iranians stands to reclaim Iran from the Islamic Republic, we are honored to host and exhibition or Iranian protest-related art, drawn directly from their movement and presented by an all-female team of Iranian-American designers and artists.</p> <p>This exhibition will show Iran Rising: the story of an entire nation's hope, resilience, unity, and courage in the face of an evil regime that has stoled their country but will not be allowed to steal their dreams.</p> <p><strong>This exhibition is free and open to the public.</strong></p> </div> </div> </div> <div data-block-plugin-id="field_block:node:news_release:field_content_topics" class="block block-layout-builder block-field-blocknodenews-releasefield-content-topics"> <h2>Topics</h2> <div class="field field--name-field-content-topics field--type-entity-reference field--label-visually_hidden"> <div class="field__label visually-hidden">Topics</div> <div class='field__items'> <div class="field__item"><a href="/taxonomy/term/606" hreflang="en">Founders Art Gallery</a></div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> Tue, 14 Feb 2023 15:25:34 +0000 Lauren Stephens 1591 at https://artsmanagement.gmu.edu
