Artist Brian Revere has debuted the 'Out the Mind of Madness' exhibition at the Snazzy Boutique in Oxford. A portion of the proceeds from the art sales will help fund the city's 2027 Juneteenth celebration.
Why it matters
The gallery seeks to highlight the value of physical artistic techniques as the accessibility of artificial intelligence continues to shift the creative landscape. Proceeds from the exhibition will provide financial backing for future community-led events.
One-third of all sales from the gallery are allocated to O.N.E.UNITED, a 501(c)7 organization. Donors can also contribute directly to the organization at First Financial Bank.
