Congressman Serrano Hosts Children's Art Exhibition at Bronx Office

Washington, DC - This exhibition of abstract paintings of flowers features a collaboration between Joseph & Donna McElroy of Corporate Performance Artists (CorporatePA), a South Bronx-based arts collective, and children from The Point’s after school program.  The Point is an innovative community arts organization in the Hunts Point neighborhood of the South Bronx.The children artists are:  Anabel Torres, Angel Torres, Chevanne Morris, Deana Rivera, Destiny Capeles, Jildo Marin, Justin Ortiz, Keishon Newell, Laquann Schultz, Michael Mingo, Oreill Henry, Vivian Kane, and Zuleima Vega.   This exhibit tells stories of the community and peoples of the Bronx, as expressed by children of the community via a visual exploration of flowers executed in paint and mixed media.

CorporatePA believes that the Bronx is changing, becoming more multi-cultural, and so intensely filled with information and alternative traditions that no single artist can tell its full story.

The exhibit will be on display at Congressman Serrano's Bronx office at 788 Southern Boulevard through April 30th.
