Moscato said “No War” is intend
ed to encourage discussion sur
rounding President Bush’s actions
abroad.
“We’re trying to provide cre
ative opposition to what’s going
on,” Moscato said. “In a country
our size, you feel kind of power
less. I can’t stop the war, but I
can put on an art show to create
a dialogue.”
My House, located at 1136 W.
Fifth Ave., has gathered submis
sions for the show throughout the

EMU. Moscato said exhibit visitors
can expect to see a wide variety of
work, ranging from more graphic
pieces to abstract ones.
“There are collages and sculp
tures,” Moscato said. “I was im
pressed by the variety of work
collected.”
Artist Jarrett Arnold’s work will
appear in the show.
“I happened to have already
painted the pieces, and it seemed
perfect to display them there,”
Arnold said. “I hope the show
gets people to more strongly feel
that war is not a good idea and
have more sympathy for fellow
human beings.”
During the opening, there will be
a place for “procrastinator artists”
to put their creative juices to work
using donated art supplies.
Art major Gariy Boyer helped or
• ganize the show. She said she felt
the anti-war message is especially
compelling when expressed
through art.
“Art is a really powerful state
ment,” Boyer said. “(The opening)
will be very strong, just as strong as
any protest.”
Organizers of the opening and
month-long exhibit said the show is
not about passively looking at art; it
is about using art to engage the
community and provide a platform
for creative activism.
“Art has the power to change
lives and empower people,”
Moscato said. “You feel powerless
over the laws that govern all
these decisions over our lives. I
think people are sick of being fed
messages by mainstream media.
Art empowers you to create your
own message.”
