Art has long been a force for revolution, reflection, and reform. A Show of Resistance, opening June 2, 2025, at First Studio Gallery, is a powerful testament to the role artists play in shaping conversations, confronting injustice, and imagining a more equitable future.
This bold, multi-artist exhibition—presented in partnership with Arizona Art Alliance—features 80 compelling works selected from over 200 submissions nationwide. The artwork spans a range of media, styles, and voices, unified by a common thread: resistance. Whether addressing personal battles or global challenges, the selected artists use their creative expression as both mirror and megaphone, inviting viewers to engage, reflect, and act.
A total of 150 pieces will be showcased in the virtual exhibition, offering a broader platform for artists’ voices and ensuring accessibility to audiences beyond Arizona.
Reception: August 1 from 5 - 9 pm
