ππ°π³π¬πͺπ―π¨ ππ¦π―π΄ 2025 marks the third collaboration between CEPA Gallery and WNYCOSH, further strengthening the relationship between the arts and the labor community.
This unique exhibition brings together seven union workers who, over the course of eight weeks, have developed their photography skills under the mentorship of renowned photographer Martin Malicki. Throughout this creative journey, participants have explored the intersection of their personal and professional lives, using photography to document the complex realities of work, home, and family.
ππ°π³π¬πͺπ―π¨ ππ¦π―π΄ 2025 is not just an art exhibitionβat a time when workers, worker protections, the right to organize, and even the right to have union contracts honored are under threatβit stands as a celebration of resilience, community, resistance, and the transformative power of art to illuminate the everyday experiences of working people. Through this collaboration between CEPA Gallery and WNYCOSH, the project provides a platform for union workers to express themselves creatively while engaging in meaningful dialogue about the significance of their roles within both their families and the broader community.
