Great Hope is a show by National Monument Press at The Union Gallery at UMass-Amherst. Great Hope is about the people, places, and experiences that encourage and sustain us. From more than 70 artists, the 100 plus print editions are presented as a unified yet diverse and democratic conversation about where we each are finding hope and encouragement in our contemporary times.
A publication will also be completed as part of the project, which will be available at the reception & book launch on February 21st.
