Celebrating Cultural Heritage
GALLERY GALLERY GALLERY
More than just an exhibition space—it's a cultural celebration that amplify the voices of BIPOC artists whose work captures the essence of folk art, a genre that celebrates community, tradition, and personal expression.
Upland Gallery provides a platform for visual artists to tell their stories. Here, emerging and underrepresented BIPOC artists can display their works and connect with audiences through visual narratives that challenge conventions and offer new perspectives. Each exhibition at Upland Gallery is thoughtfully curated to highlight the diverse narratives and artistic expressions within the folk art tradition. From intricate textiles and vibrant paintings to handcrafted sculptures and multimedia pieces, our exhibitions bring together a rich array of works that tell powerful stories and reflect the diverse experiences of BIPOC communities. By offering a platform for these artists, Upland Gallery not only promotes their work but also fosters a deeper understanding and appreciation of their cultural narratives.
