Green Room Exchange International Artist Showcase

The local initiative GreenRoom Exchange seeks to foster cross-cultural experiences. The organization’s first event since the beginning of the pandemic will showcase three local artists and refugees who have been selected as grant recipients, all of whom using their talents to reflect their countries of origin. Featured artists Teddy Kabengle, a singer/songwriter from the Democratic Republic of Congo whose music helped him survive 10 years in a refugee camp; Yamukumba M’baya, a photographer from the Democratic Republic of Congo; and Syrian refugee Aous Al Naasree, a graphic artist working on canvas and paper.
