The upcoming exhibition reception for the “We The People: Propaganda Art” will open as scheduled with a reception open to the public on
Saturday, November 3rd, 2018 at 7 PM.
"As the host of Hola Palm Beach Talk Show on HOLA TV and the owner and curator I have much concern for the safety of my guests, my artists, and my patrons.
My program Activism and Art which featured Giannina Coppiano Dwin and Alessandra Mondolfi was aired this Sunday and I have decided not to postpone or to cancel the “We The People: Propaganda Arts Exhibition that has been planned to coincide with the Florida elections for months, as to do so would be reactionary and a sign of unwarranted fear."
