What: Feel the Love - The Little Big Men of Vivero Boxing Gym

Where: Mokah Art Gallery. 2803 Taylor Street, Dallas, TX. 214-653-0633

When: July 1, 2010 - July 24, 2010

According to Visit Dallas, “Vivero Boxing Gym is like a little pocket of light in a shadowy room. After spending several days in the gym, Kate Mefford, photographer of this exhibition, was incredibly inspired by its mission to keep local (Oak Cliff) youth engaged and focused after school and on weekends.” The Vivero Boxing Gym has filled the need of a safe place to stay active and learn a skill for the Oak Cliff youth in a creative way. The photographs reflect how dedication to today’s youth can give them the opportunity to see themselves as meaningful participants of their community. Be inspired as you enjoy the result of this photographer’s amazement.

Mokah Art Gallery, an extension of Life in Deep Ellum, serves to promote culture and art in Deep Ellum and surrounding communities. At the Cultural Center, Mokah Art Gallery exhibitions feature contemporary art of local artists from the experimental, the emerging, and the established.
