Past Events with ESAC

Yang Yang is a Special Education teacher and photographer.

Yang’s exhibit revolves around the Hmong word “uv” which describes an emotion that one must persist through tough moments.

East Side Arts Council partnered with Art@967 for the past Solidarity 2024 Street Gallery.

This year’s theme was ‘MIGRATION & MEMORIES,’ acknowledging and celebrating that we all came from somewhere. About 60-70 visual artists, musicians, dancers, and poets shared their migration stories and cultural memories, weaving together a one-of-a-kind multi-cultural tapestry of all the people and communities who come together every day to live, work, shop and play in our neighborhood.
