LEGACY LIVES HERE

“Children of Grass: A Portrait of American Poetry,” is a thought-provoking exhibit that offers a fresh perspective on contemporary American identity through a unique blend of visual art and poetry.
“Children of Grass” showcases a captivating collection of photographic portraits by B.A. Van Sise, paying homage to the poets of our time. These evocative images, created in collaboration with the poets themselves, serve as visual interpretations of their literary works, forging a powerful connection between two distinct forms of artistic expression.

Woody Guthrie (1912-1967) was one of America’s greatest folksingers and most influential songwriters. His songs celebrate the beauty and bounty of America and seek the truth about our country and its people. He turned complex ideas about democracy, human rights, and economic equality into simple songs that all Americans could embrace. Woody Guthrie spoke for those who carried a heavy burden or had come upon hard times — giving voice to their struggles and giving them hope and strength.
