Radiate! Community Arts & Music Festival

Radiate! is a Path with Art exhibition that celebrates the transformative power of creativity to illuminate, uplift, and bring us together.
This exhibition was born from an open call to our entire community—Teaching Artists, Participant Artists, Creative Mentors, staff, volunteers, Social Service Providers, and neighbors alike—inviting everyone to explore joy in its many forms. Together, these works embody light, color, and movement, while also reflecting connection, resilience, and the ripple effects of creativity shared. Each piece is a spark, illuminating the ways art empowers us to grow, heal, and transform.
Radiate! also reflects our commitment to radical hospitality—an art practice in itself. These artworks arise from a spirit of welcome that embraces difference, honors dignity, and moves beyond mere inclusion to genuine belonging. In this space, art becomes a toolkit for imagining and enacting radical change: challenging scarcity with abundance, light with shadow, isolation with connection. In each stroke, gesture, or shared vision, we see how creativity can be a powerful force not only for artistic expression but for building community.
We invite you to experience the collective radiance here. May this gathering of voices spark new connections, shine light into unexpected places, and remind us all that joy, when shared, becomes even more powerful.

In times of uncertainty, we find ourselves searching for places to anchor, to connect, and to grow. This exhibition, featuring Path with Art artists, invites you into a living tapestry of creativity—one rooted in the cycles of nature and nurtured by the collective spirit of our community.
The works before you are the fruits of many hands and hearts, cultivated in classes that explored the wonders of the natural world and the transformative power of art. These artists have wandered gardens, studied birds and wildflowers, reflected on personal stories, and found inspiration in the quiet wisdom of the earth. From the vibrant layers of gelli plate prints and collages to the contemplative lines of figure drawings, each medium reveals a distinct way of seeing and feeling. Whether through the meditative stitches of embroidery or expressive masks that chart personal journeys, these works open pathways to reflection, renewal, and a deeper sense of self. Every piece is a testament to the courage and creativity of its maker.
Here, art becomes both a sanctuary and a gathering place—a garden where differences are honored and common ground is cultivated. In these unsettled times, we invite you to slow down, to linger, and to let the art guide you toward empathy, grace, and reflection. Notice the textures, the stories, the insights behind each creation. Let this space remind you that growth is possible, and that kindness—toward ourselves and one another—can help us all take root and flourish.
May you find, among us, a garden—one that is ever-growing, ever-changing, and always open to new seeds of hope.
