LexHAB ‘HOME’ Fundraiser: Oct 23, 6-8:30pm

LexHAB, an affordable housing organization, and LexArt, announce the 2nd biennial Home exhibition is meant to call attention to the issue of affordable housing and help raise funds to support LexHAB’s mission to provide and implement alternatives for the provision of affordable, safe and housing for low and moderate income households

HOME will focus on the theme of ‘home’ and the role of housing in our lives. Whether it is a physical place or an idea, ‘home’ can mean something different at each stage of life and varies by culture and geography. Housing as shelter is a universal human need that is inaccessible for too many, locally and globally. A shelter is a need, a house can be a haven, a nest can be empty, a home can be inhabitable: climate change, income inequality, racism, violence, love, community, and family are just a few of the factors that impact our concept of home and our ability to attain and maintain a home. All submitted works of art share this perspective on the notion of ‘home’.
