This exhibition, as a follow-up to the gallery’s “Aftermath” show, explores the renewal that nature and society undergo in the aftermath of two Category 5 storms.

This will be the second scheduled “First Friday” art & music event at Mongoose Junction since the 2017 Hurricane season.  It will feature performances by the Macislyn Bamboula Dance Company, Inc.

“re·new·al” will feature:

The Gri Gri project hopes to remind us that for all the destruction brought by Hurricane’s Irma and Maria, creativity continues to spring up in the aftermath.

The show will run until June 1.
