Let Freedom Bring

a collaborative exhibition between Powerhouse Arts & AANYAA
curated by Eric Shiner


On view November 13 - December 11, 2025

Opening Reception: November 18, 6:30-8:30p

Powerhouse Arts, 322 3rd Ave, Brooklyn, NY 11215


​Artistic freedom must be championed at all costs in our ever-shifting sociopolitical reality. The notion of freedom is fundamental to the American condition, and has always been a heavily loaded concept vis-à-vis freedom of speech, freedom of religion and other founding principals.  On the eve of this nation’s 250th birthday, this exhibition examines works that exemplify, question or critique freedom in all of its many forms.

About POWERHOUSE ARTS: 

 

Powerhouse Arts envisions a society in which creative expression is celebrated and supported as central to personal and civic development.

 

Their vision for impact is rooted in:
 

People as an infinite spring of creativity: In shared spaces of exploration, communities imagine new realities for themselves and their neighbors. Powerhouse collaborates with individuals and organizations to support the creative lives of New Yorkers.

 

Making as a collective practice of possibility: When we make, we experiment, explore, expand, and evolve. Making is a process of dreaming of new possibilities for ourselves and our communities, thus, igniting potential transformation.

 

Social justice as a practice of Powerhouse Arts: Culture thrives where justice flourishes. As a creative hive, we foster an environment where people feel inspired and empowered to explore and create within and beyond the walls of Powerhouse.

Fabrication

Powerhouse Arts' in-house production facilities and expert fabrication teams help artists produce work in a safe environment, in a more cost effective and collaborative way than typical studio buildings can accommodate.

Community Ceramics Studio

Powerhouse Arts' ceramics membership program offers artists access to workspace, materials, equipment not accessible elsewhere, and professional assistance.

Community Engagement & Partnerships

Powerhouse Arts actively engages the imaginations of our neighbors in developing public programs that support the creative lives and vitality of our communities.

Space Hosting

Powerhouse Arts invites mission- and values-aligned artists and organizations to partner in activating the building, and our Private Event and Corporate Rental program supports our mission of fostering creative expression.
