We all experienced this markedly darkest human history worldwide over the last over one and one half years. But the WAH Center has kept our torch of art & hope brightly lit continuously without let up to uplift our spirits. We did this by having three consecutive exhibitions, “Lockdown” (Nov. 7, 2020 – Jan. 17, 2021), “Togetherness & Oneness” (May 22 – July 10, 2021), and “America The Beautiful” ( Sept, 18 – Nov. 13, 2021) without a moment of pause. The numerous artists who participated in the Open Call Juried shows revealed their own life stories in various mediums. The Yuko Nii Foundations purchased quite a few works from each show. Due to the limited gallery space, we cannot exhibit all of the works in this part of the collection. However we have selected over 100 artworks and made sure that at least one piece from each artist from the three shows will be exhibited. The total show is a rich magnificent tapestry, a storytelling historical record of the past COVID 19 pandemic period.
