Truth Unveiled: Art as Reality, Illusion, and Insight, a juried national exhibition of Fine Art at the Art League of Rhode Island. The exhibit opens with a reception Saturday, October 18th from 5 to 7pm. The exhibit continues until December 5th. 

Art League RI is proud to present Truth Unveiled: Art as Reality, Illusion, and Insight, a juried exhibition that explores how artists reveal, question, and challenge Truth through their work.
