Beacon Gallery has become ShowUp - a 501c3 nonprofit art space | For all the latest happenings at 524B Harrison head over to showupinc.org 

Join us for the First Friday opening of Lives in Limbo: Refugees at the Gates of Europe.

As described by the Boston Globe, "Aid worker Leslie Meral Schick helped organize this exhibition of photos, drawings, videos, and more. It spotlights individual refugees in portraits and biographies, and documents life in camps in Greece and elsewhere."

A portion of every sale of art by local artists will go to Leslie's work with refugees and 100% of profits of art by refugees will go directly back to the original artist.

Come support this worthy cause and learn more about what's happening to people just like you and me as they attempt to escape inestimable hardship in their own countries, only to be faced with perilous travels and inhumane conditions once they can finally request asylum.
