Building Bridges Through Art Exhibition with Planned Parenthood

Building Bridges Through Art: Exhibition with Planned Parenthood

Step into a space where art inspires connection, conversation, and community. Building Bridges is a vibrant, community-centered exhibition series at Stormwater Studios that brings people together through the transformative power of creative expression.

This special installment, presented in collaboration with Planned Parenthood, celebrates identity, challenges barriers, and encourages thoughtful dialogue around justice, equity, and reproductive rights.

Rooted in the belief that art and advocacy go hand in hand, this exhibition invites visitors into a welcoming and supportive environment—one where everyone is encouraged to engage, learn, and connect. Attendees can explore community resources, discover opportunities for collaboration, and take part in conversations that spark meaningful change.

Planned Parenthood is a non-profit organization committed to providing comprehensive sexual and reproductive healthcare, including birth control, STI testing and treatment, cancer screenings, and abortion services. As a national leader in sex education, it also advocates for reproductive rights and equitable access to healthcare for all. Globally, it works with partners to expand access to reproductive health services and education.

The exhibition will be on view from Wednesday, August 20, through Friday, September 5, with an opening reception on Thursday, August 21, from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.

This special evening offers the chance to meet Vicki Ringer, Director of Public Affairs, and the exhibiting artists; connect with community members; and learn more about the impactful work of Planned Parenthood. From 5:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m., Ringer will share insights into the organization’s mission, the impact of their work, and how to get involved in the community.
