This important show will not only showcase the works of talented archived artists George Roby and Herbert Ascherman but will also promote awareness of Alzheimer’s disease, its research for a cure, and its effects not only on the patients but on the caregivers and the community as well.

The opening reception will be on Friday March 30, 2011 from 5:00 pm to 8:00 pm at the AAWR Gallery.

Show featuring Michelangelo Lovelace: June 15, 2012-July 20, 2012
Michelangelo Lovelace is a native of Cleveland, Ohio and has been a professional artist for 22 years. His paintings are visual documentations of life in many of America's inner cities. Lovelace's painting technique is acrylic on textured canvas, while using an animated, vibrant childlike imagery that is reminiscent of primitive works of both folk art and outsider art. His paintings depict a realistic look at what it's really like living in a community, where anything can happen at any time and where life can often be fast, poor, and short. His goal is to express the despair caused by the chasm between the promise and the reality of urban life in America for poor blacks and awaken the minds of people in our society. Opening Reception will be on June 15, 2012 from 5:00 pm to 8:00 pm at the AAWR Gallery.
