Nuestras Raíces

Celebrate the powerful images of hope, peace, beauty and perseverance created by the children enrolled in The Goodlands Community Arts Program of Centro Nueva Creacion. Nuestras Raices is the 7th annual summer exhibit to be hosted by Nexus Foundation for Today’s Art. The Goodlands Community Arts Program is part of a community strategy by Centro Nueva Creacion to counter the negative image of the West Kensington and Fairhill neighborhoods as “The Badlands.”

Although most people would not want to consider this area "The Badlands", it's still important to support youth projects. For years this area of the city has been considered the badlands, not a good marketing tactic. Some think it's dangerous but to be honest any neighborhood in any city can be dangerous. See you this Thursday!
