The Embassy Cultural House is pleased to announce its first open-call invitation to participate in a virtual group exhibition: Hiding in Plain Sight.

This exhibition is inspired by the book "Hiding in Plain Sight" published in 2020 by St. Louis-based journalist Sarah Kendzior.  In her book she describes US President Trump's administration as "
a transnational crime syndicate masquerading as a government."  There are many other governments in the world at this time that also fit this description. They are all connected.
 
The Embassy Cultural House will present this virtual exhibit organized by Ron Benner.  An image of the artwork in any medium can be submitted along with the accompanying information - artist's name, title of artwork, date & medium.

OUR STORY
Artists Jamelie Hassan and Ron Benner and jazz musician Eric Stach founded the Embassy Cultural House (1983-1990) located in the restaurant portion of the Embassy Hotel at 732 Dundas Street in East London. Other former members of the board were: Debrann Eastabrook, Henry Eastabrook, Sharron Forrest, Wyn Geleynse, Janice Gurney, Jean Hay (1929 - 2008), Doug Mitchell, Kim Moodie, Gerard Pas, Peter Rist, Wanda Sawicki, Jean Spence and Jennie White. In 2020, at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Embassy Cultural House was re-envisioned as a virtual artist-run space and website. 

This project is supported by the Ontario Arts Council and the London Arts Council through the City of London's Community Arts Investment Program.
