Take a safe stroll/drive down 4th st. #dtws to see several #artworksgalleryws artists on display in @aperturecinema ‘s street gallery 💝 These works of art were created as a part of a community art initiative curated by @seccacontempart to help fill the empty outdoor movie poster frames outside @aperturecinema during the COVID-19 Stay Home order. 🌼

ArtworksGalleryWS artist Woodie Anderson shares the love in her poster design around the theme of hope.
