Exhibits
Honored with Art
As a hub for creativity, ACH has the ability to host our own exhibits and be surrounded by meaningful works of art, including our own murals that adorn many of the walls in our building.
Currently, our exhibits include "Together" by Selma Burke and a traveling art history feature.

"Together," was sculpted by Dr. Selma Burke and presented to the Hill House Association in 1975.
The work depicts a male and female figure cradling a baby between their bodies. The themes of family love and unity are found in many of her works.
We are honored to have this piece of work living within our building.
About Selma Burke
Selma Burke (December 31, 1900 - August 29, 1995) was an American sculptor, educator, and member of the Harlem Renaissance Movement. She received national recognition and became known for her portrait sculpture of Franklin D. Roosevelt, which, according to the Smithsonian American Art Museum, inspired the image of the dime.
Perspectives: An Afro American Visual Exhibit
ACH Clear Pathways, in association with Mr. Roger Smith and the Smith Family Fund, created “Perspectives” which is a traveling art exhibit relative to African American History. This exhibit provides s brief narrative and associated images on eight African American historical topics. This exhibit includes positive topics such as Amanda Gorman’s Inaugural Day speech. In addition, topics of a disturbing nature such as “Strange Fruit” and Black Wall Street are included. This exhibit will illuminate and engender an interest in these and other topics related to African-American history.
A unique feature of this exhibit is its portability. The eight framed prints and portable easels may be transported in 4 art portfolio tote bags. “Perspectives” is an exhibit to be shared with the community throughout the year.
Organizations, schools, and businesses can purchase this exhibit for a nominal cost. Inquiries can be made to admin@achcp.org
