IAC's Director of Operations Linda Weingarten has her work in the exhibition Visions of Freedom, presented by Women Sharing Art, Inc. in celebration of the 250th anniversary of the founding of the United States.
WSA is a vibrant collective of women artists working across ceramics, painting, art glass, fiber art, jewelry, mixed media, mosaics, oils, & acrylics, photography, pottery, sculpture, watercolor, and videography.
In Visions of Freedom, over 30 talented artists bring together diverse perspectives to explore what freedom means in the American experience.
Through deeply personal expressions and varied artistic languages, from richly textured mosaics and luminous glass pieces to evocative photographs and expressive paintings, the exhibit celebrates both historical ideals and contemporary interpretations of liberty, identity, and possibility. Drawing on each artist’s unique background and creative voice, the works invite viewers to reflect on the many dimensions of freedom in a nation shaped by diverse cultures, struggles, and stories.
Visions of Freedom is not only a visual display of craftsmanship across media but also a thoughtful dialogue about the ideals at the core of America’s ongoing journey.
