The City of Pembroke Pines and Studio 18 in the Pines are pleased to present Coping Behind the Mask. There is a need in our society to step back from the daily grind and reconnect and care for ourselves. By engaging in artistic creation and self-expression, a person can find a connection with themselves and others. Join us for an interactive exhibition designed to raise awareness about the function of art as a viable therapeutic component and a powerful contributor to a community’s physical, social, and emotional well-being. We hope to inspire change and nurture personal growth with this exhibition.

Participating artists: Apia Art, Reinaldo Lozano, Autumn Kioti, Sharonda Eccentrich Richardson and others.

Coping Behind the Mask opens on Friday, October 1st at 7 PM.

Admission and parking to Studio 18 are free. Mask-wearing is mandatory. For more information, call 954.961.6067 or visit www.ppines.com/studio18
