Opening Reception: Gina Washington and Nyki Fetterman

Join Akron Soul Train in ringing in 2024 with two new exhibitions; Gina Washington's "Universal Child" and Nyki Fetterman's “MYSTICISM | BETWEEN.”

Gina Washington’s exhibit “Universal Child” explores fairytales and children’s stories passed through generations that have supplanted an illusion of “American identity” and the understanding of the Black experience.

Artist Nyki Fetterman accents the often-overlooked joyful and fleeting moments in the chaos of every day in her show “MYSTICISM | BETWEEN.” These could be catching someone’s smile, listening carefully to the words of a friend, or examining an interaction in a new way.
