Project: HOPE

Art Project HOPE is a program that consists of high school art students across the Cape adopting a large canvas and creating their collective vision of hope for the Child and Family Services Program in Hyannis.
It has been said it takes village to raise a child and the program was looking for a creative way to bring the Cape communities together and support those who are navigating their mental health journey.
There are nine participating schools: Nauset, Monomoy, DY, Barnstable, Pope John Paul II, Sandwich, Southeast Alternative, Mashpee and Falmouth.
Nauset artists Connie LaMotte and Diana Jeronimo collaborated on the piece that will be on display for the opening reception May 5th at 5 PM in the Hallway of Hope at the Hyannis Child and Family Services office (1019 Iyannough Rd). 
"Our idea behind this piece was to have the background be colorful and bright to make the viewer fell uplifted.  The piece is dominated by abstract images of color and on top is a silhouette of someone holding an umbrella for another person.  The silhouette depicts kindness, hopefulness and friendship." - Connie and Diana
