“My work symbolizes and explores cultural diversity, people’s survival rhythms and spiritual practices, and their hopes for a better future.” ~Betty LaDuke
Understanding similarities between cultures is often the first step in accepting and appreciating differences. Betty LaDuke’s works of art express beautiful reminders of shared commonalities in the human experience, regardless of culture, race or religion.
Betty LaDuke attended the Opening Reception for Honor The Earth/Multicultural Journeys on Friday, February 18, and engaged in a lively discussion with the community.
