An exhibit of works by our friends at Project Grow. Project Grow is an inclusive arts, farming, music and yoga community comprised of mentally diverse people. Their studio was formerly a toxic battery factory, and their farm an EPA brownfield. The group has transformed the space into a vibrant art studio and a chemical-free CSA farm.
