North is Freedom three months on

It's been three months already since North is Freedom https://www.yuridojc.com/ opened at Art Windsor Essex and it keeps gaining steam and momentum.

Tonight our producer and curator Dorothy Abbot (pictured) will be giving a talk and guided tour of the exhibition https://bit.ly/niftourdabbott at the gallery. If you're in town stop by and check it out, it will be worth it.

The media coverage for the show has been great too. The latest dispatch is from CBC Windsor https://bit.ly/niftourdabbottourdabbott and includes a radio interview* with the producer. The link to the story and interview is in the first comment below.

Dorothy gives a great overview of how the project started, it's purpose and scope, and shares how she got involved and helped grow the collection of portraits beyond the initial 20.

The current exhibition at Art Windsor Essex features 65 portraits and a 10 minute video.
