DISABILITY becomes BEAUTY becomes ART becomes CHANGE at University Campus
MIAMI - ncarol.com -- Bold Beauty Project (BBP) is a powerful visual arts exhibition celebrating women with varying disabilities. BBP is honored to be able to collaborate with Florida International University on an exhibition which was held on April 9, 2025, at the FUI Modesto Maidique Campus in the BEA Gallery, 1025 SW 112th Avenue, Miami FL from 6:00-8:00 pm. The well-attended exhibition of large-scale photographs, by student and award-winning photographers and artists, coupled with the women's personal stories, created a vivid and intimate portrait of these extraordinary women. The works sparked creativity and reimagined beauty in our world and were universally applauded by the guests.
