Call For Art - Broken But Beautiful - Youth Beneath Capitalism
Bridgeport Arts & Cultural Council in partnership with City Lights Gallery, is seeking powerful, thought-provoking artwork for an upcoming show entitled, Broken But Beautiful: Youth Beneath Capitalism which gathers fragments of young people’s memories past and present to reveal the emotional cost of dreaming within a collapsing system. Shaped by pressure, expectation, and survival, this show exposes both the fractures and the fierce resilience that define their coming‑of‑age. Even in their brokenness, they remain expressive, empowered, and undeniably beautiful.
