Artist Talk with Dawn Flores
Third Thursday, May 15, 2025, 6:15 pm
During our monthly “Third Thursday” program, Dawn Flores will lead an artist talk about her exhibition “Unification: Where Past Meets Present the Future is Born.” The exhibition atones for racial injustice while pointing to a future that transcends the sins of our country’s foundation in white supremacy. This work reflects 30 years of her living in the former capital of the Confederacy and her ongoing effort to unlearn false narratives.

The Washington Center of ADA, ADA Art Gallery, May 2025 exhibition; The Shape of Things, by Kenneth Carbone.
Kenneth Carbone is a New York visual artist whose work explores the use of shape, color and contrast for their abstract beauty. Although inspired by what’s seen in nature, he offers no defined narrative. In a world of turmoil, he wants this body of work to invite personal interpretation and introspection to provide a respite from the clamor of contemporary life.
The artist is represented by EdithGraves.com. This exhibition is at the Washington Center in May at the ADA Art Gallery at 1627 21st Street, NW on Gallery Row. For more information about ADA Art Gallery contact 202-445-8557. @WashigntonCenterADAU
