About this Event

Take a midday pause to explore freedom through abstraction in , the Gantt Center's newest exhibition. ArtBreak: Freedom and Freeform in Black Abstraction is a free, 30-minute docent-led tour that invites guests to engage with bold color, movement, texture, and experimentation in works by Black artists pushing beyond traditional art forms.

Perfect for a lunch break, this guided experience offers insight into how abstraction becomes a powerful language for identity, liberation, imagination, and self-expression. Through conversation and examination, visitors will discover how the artists in Beyond Boundaries redefine what freedom can look and feel like in contemporary Black art.
