The Angel Art Program was founded as a way to help some of the poorest communities in Nicaragua by teaching children and adults how to create, exhibit, and sell their artwork locally and abroad. In the spring of 2009 the program’s founder, David Chatowsky, traveled to various remote villages of Nicaragua and taught art to over 300 students.

This exhibit is made up of the work of those students as well as several talented Nicaraguan artists who have joined the Angel Art Program. The predominant image in these paintings is the artist’s representation of his or her community. This might consist of an individual engaged in a daily task, an entire village gathered at a market, or the iconic image of a single house under a yellow sun.

This exhibit is an extraordinary collection of work by artists of all ages, unified by strong cultural roots, revelry in color, and an inspiring sense of optimism in the face of poverty.

All work will be for sale, unless otherwise noted.
