The fabric of the United States is and was always made of many-colored threads. Lately these threads are frayed. There is outrage and fury emanating from people in response to inequality and injustice which have increasingly revived calls for civil rights, cultural sensitivity, and for protecting vulnerable groups from discrimination and hate crimes. Art can be a powerful catalyst, both for social protest and for promoting harmony and unity among us.

As the name implies, the exhibition US All seeks to show the diversity that binds us and is woven into the fabric of our country. In this exhibition, we seek to showcase diversity through portraits of our pluralistic, multi-ethnic/multi-cultural peoples. These can be portraits of people in all artistic mediums: photography, drawing, painting, sculpture, etc. We show our art of people to promote our inclusive, harmonious diversity. This begins by including artists of all races and cultures, of all ages and genders. The subjects should also reflect the same diversity and multi-faceted images of America. We seek to celebrate the power of unity by showing ‘US All’. Who are we All? We are America. We are comprised of the indigenous, the immigrants and children of immigrants, and the descendants of enslaved peoples. We are of diverse races, religions, socio-economic backgrounds, sexual orientations, ages and genders. We will focus this exhibition on those images that make us unique and when taken together form our American Mosaic.
