In this episode, we sit down with Gabriel-Bello Diaz to explore the impact and vision of ACES (Artists of Color Expo & Symposium). We dive into how this community-driven event showcases the work of artists of color, fosters professional development, and creates a vital space for connection within the Pacific Northwest art scene.

In this episode, we discuss:

  • The origins and mission of the Artists of Color Expo & Symposium.

  • Gabriel-Bello Diaz’s journey and his role in supporting underrepresented voices in the arts.

  • How platforms like ACES are changing the landscape for local creators.

The Magnuson Park Gallery Exchange is produced and recorded by SPACE 101.1FM. We bring the artist talk out of the gallery and into the studio to give you an up-close look at the exhibitions and movements shaping our community.
