The WORDS = POWER initiative will feature exhibitions at the Crafts Center and Gregg Museum of Art & Design. This includes creative sessions and exhibitions of artwork, as the initiative explores our relationship with words and addresses a variety of issues including beauty, destruction and resilience.
