Seeking artists from all cultural backgrounds who have some connection to Malden to explore and express the challenges and benefits of living in a multicultural community through their artwork. This may include celebrations of multiculturalism, issues of stereotypes and racism, or cross-cultural awareness.

Building Bridges Through Art, an exhibition exploring Malden's diverse community, will be held at the MATV Gallery this summer. Works  may be in any two-dimensional medium and in any form of expression.

The prospectus, due by May 25, 2012, is available by contacting Susan Burke, artsbridge@comcast.net or 781-710-5554.

This program is supported in part by a grant from the Malden Cultural Council, a local agency which is supported by the Massachusetts Cultural Council, a state agency.
