“I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word in reality. This is why right, temporarily defeated, is stronger than evil triumphant.”
Martin Luther King, Jr., Nobel Peace Prize Acceptance Speech, Oslo, Norway, 1964.
What can your art reveal about the truth? Art can transform, empower, and bring us together. It gives space to actively listen and to speak freely without minimizing the perspectives of others. Truth can hurt, heal, and make way for genuine self-expression. New Museum Los Gatos (NUMU) invites Santa Clara County high school students to create an original work of art that reveals a personal or universal truth.
