Connecting Cultures: Children's Stories From Across the World June 27, 2011

In 2010, the Frist Center for the Visual Arts partnered with ten Nashville organizations that represent cultures from around the world. The goal was to create an exhibition of artworks depicting the children's stories of different traditions. Ten artists and the Frist Center's community outreach team led workshops in which the artworks on view in this gallery were created. Connecting Cultures: Children's Stories from Across the World begins with the premise that the stories of children simultaneously reflect unique cultural values as well as perspectives that are shared by people worldwide.
