ANNOUNCEMENT: Art for Inclusion / Arte que Nos Una
Wake UP Sonoma and Art Escape proudly announce the launch of Art for Inclusion / Arte que Nos Una, a new community‑driven initiative designed to elevate youth and Latino voices across Sonoma Valley through the power of art. This project invites every business and nonprofit in the Valley to participate by displaying window clings featuring original youth artwork — a visible symbol of welcoming, supportive, and inclusive spaces.
Youth art will be featured in a series of rotating art shows hosted by community partners, businesses, and sponsors. The kickoff event will be held at Sunflower Caffé, one of the earliest supporters of the initiative. Leading up to the Kickoff event, the pieces will be on display at Sunflower Caffé starting on October 13th.
