Exhibition

______________

Seen & Whole reflects mattering, inclusivity, and mental wellness through contemporary art and the intentional practices of its curatorial team. The exhibition is presented at the Congregational Church of La Jolla (CCLJ), La Jolla’s oldest faith community and the only explicitly LGBTQIA+ affirming Christian church in the neighborhood, led by an openly queer minister. It is part of Activated Spaces, a program by San Diego Art Directory that places original artwork by local artists in meaningful community spaces and businesses throughout San Diego County.

Experience being radically seen and welcomed in a historical building featuring curated, contemporary art during the opening reception.
