  Freedom, Liberty, and Independence: Celebrating Independence Day with Autistic Artists

  Main Library, 449 Broadway, Cambridge, MA 02138

  The Fourth of July embodies the culmination of hope and perseverance in American history, while Korea's Liberation Day serves as a remembrance of past struggles and an affirmation to strive for a better future. Both days are not merely annual remembrances but a rekindling of the hard-earned joy of freedom that emerged from the ashes of adversity. This exhibition showcases the works of extraordinary artists—Korean and American savants with autism whose visions are undeterred by their challenges. Their art is a bold pursuit of freedom and individuality, a canvas where the trials of history and the personal battles for independence coalesce.
