"Beauty, BRAVERY, AND BOLDNESS TO BLOOM"
If You've Been Affected By Breast Cancer
This Day Celebrates You!
Toast to Hope: Canvases of Courage 2026 is a healing-centered, art-infused celebration honoring breast cancer survivors, fighters, and supporters through bold storytelling, visual expression, and community restoration.
Formerly known as Bold Hues, this evolving exhibit has grown into a full-circle experience—uniting creativity, resilience, and sisterhood under one powerful name. Canvases of Courage is a public healing exhibit designed to transform personal stories into collective strength. Through visual storytelling, we spark emotional wellness, cultural dialogue, and unapologetic empowerment.
Curated to amplify the voices of Black, Indigenous, and artists of color—especially women—Canvases of Courage showcases striking works that explore identity, trauma, healing, and transformation. Each piece is more than art—it’s a mirror and a movement, inviting viewers into a sacred space where color speaks truth, and every brushstroke holds weight.
This exhibit dares to break the silence around emotional pain and recovery. It invites bold, culturally rooted conversations that honor survival, resilience, and rebirth. It’s not just a gallery—it’s a sacred groundswell of remembrance and rise.
Open to all, Canvases of Courage creates space for reflection, connection, and collective healing.
Because this isn’t just a name change.
It’s a brighter chapter.
The stories are deeper. The voices are louder.
And the healing? Still sacred. Still rising.
This is art in full voice.
This is Toast to Hope: Canvases of Courage.
