The Main Gallery, located on the first floor Downtown’s Central Library, has unveiled a new exhibit that celebrates our diverse culture and talented artists — Blend 2023.

Organized by Latino Art Blend (LAB), a collective of Hispanic artists, the exhibit features various pieces of work including photography, painting, and textiles. This annual showcase highlights the work of artists who are from Latin American countries or have a direct connection to them.

And that is the goal of LAB — to showcase the quality work of Ibero-American artists who have ties to countries where Spanish or Portuguese is the primary language.

See the exhibit for yourself, which will be on display until Sunday, Nov. 12.
