Art in a Season of Revolution

Chioma Nwana:Forever, Amen
In Forever, Amen, documentary photographer Chioma Nwana captures the oldest Black churches in White Plains and the communities they continue to sustain. The series reflects on how these spaces have endured through generations of change, remaining central to the city’s Black history and culture.

Rana Amirtahmasebi: Continuum: Terra
Continuum: Terratransforms ArtsWestchester’s gallery vault into an immersive world of clay, color and intricate pattern. Drawing from artist Rana Amirtahmasebi’s Iranian heritage, the site-responsive installation explores patterns as carriers of meaning – and invites visitors into an intimate space for reflection and pause.

LGBTQ+ Listening Library
The LGBTQ+ Listening Library, curated by musician Christina Picciano in collaboration with the Hudson Valley Queer Collective, is an immersive celebration of queer music and the artists who shape it. What began as a homegrown collection has evolved into a growing archive of vinyl, CDs and cassettes that invites visitors to explore the sounds and stories that define LGBTQ+ culture.
