Home: An Exploration with Grace Kisa

Join us to view a Grace Kisa led mixed-media community collaboration based on the theme of home, making a place of peace for ourselves, and then building communities of diversity, equity, inclusion and cooperation. The exhibit also includes pieces from Grace’s personal collection that are available for purchase.

Grace Kisa was born in Nairobi, Kenya. Her father’s profession as an economist afforded her family the opportunity to travel and live in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, McLean, Virginia, Toronto, Canada, then Gaborone, Botswana before she came to Atlanta to pursue a degree in Art from the Art Institute in Atlanta. Grace Kisa currently lives in Lawrenceville, Georgia where she makes a living as an artist.
