SUMMARY:Opening Reception: Children’s Art Carnival in Harlem
DESCRIPTION:\nTomo Mori is one of the exhibiting artists in the new exhibition Children’s Art Carnival in Harlem: The Making of Contemporary Artists. Opening reception on Thursday, June 25th, from 6–8 pm at Columbia University’s Wallach Art Gallery, Lenfest Center for the Arts, 615 W 129th Street, 6th Floor. \nTomo created an 18-foot-high fiber art installation for this exhibition. I hope you’ll stop by to see it!\n \nClick here to RSVP.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\nThis is one of the first major exhibitions to examine the vibrant community art center in Upper Manhattan which opened in 1969 as an outreach program of the Museum of Modern Art. Its visionary director, arts educator, and artist Betty Blayton-Taylor turned the program into an independent non-profit in 1974 and acquired a brownstone building on Hamilton Terrace, where she developed a pedagogy that celebrated individual expression as a means of self-discovery for generations of Harlem youth and their instructors, many of whom were emerging artists, themselves.\nFor the 2026 edition of its Uptown Triennial series, Wallach Art Gallery presents an exhibition of 30 artworks by former and current students, instructors, and interns at this community art center that emphasize creative freedom, experimentation, and communal bonds through the work of its affiliated artists. The exhibition is curated by Souleo.\nPlease join us to celebrate how the Children’s Art Carnival has brought a community together through pedagogy and care, nurturing Harlem’s artistic voices for more than half a century.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
