"The Declaration’s promise of Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness was never guaranteed; it was always something we had to breathe back into existence, generation by generation. I found that truth on a walk in St. Augustine, the oldest city in the nation, in the most unexpected place: a rusting pinwheel on a crooked white fence. American Rust While walking in St. Augustine, I was struck by a rusting patriotic pinwheel perched on an old white picket fence failing to contain the tiny, overgrown yard of a small, ramshackle house with flaking white paint. A rocker sat on the slanting porch, flanked by a tattered flag and a weathered front door. This home had clearly seen better, and far worse days. Nestled in the nation’s oldest city, the house had likely flown many flags as nations battled, won, and lost control of the land. I felt a kinship between this forlorn home and the state of our country, and I wondered when it had fallen into such disrepair. I puffed my cheeks and blew. The pinwheel sprang to life, stars and stripes spinning proudly once again with the force of my breath, and I was filled with hope. ©Laura Dill May 31, 2026, All Rights Reserved Photography published in Women Writing for (a) Change Anthology, (a) River Rising: Vol. VI, Metamorphosis Edition, Dec 2024.

$750.00 Buy nowMixed Media by Eric Rakov (16in. x 16in.)
"This piece is a tribute to the first generation Rakovs, who immigrated to the US from Russia at the beginning the 20th century and bore a family of 7 children... The youngest was my grandfather. The piece incorporates artifacts from their journey, including copies of government documents and actual slips from the family owned clothing store in Syracuse, NY where my grandfather worked. The reference photo was a familiar fixture in the family home; to pay honor to America's 250 Anniversary for me means tribute to the millions of immigrants who left everything behind to pursue the dream of Life, Liberty and Happiness."Artwork purchased online can be picked up AFTER the exhibit ends, on or after August 2, 2026 -- or shipped to the buyer (ALL SHIPPING COSTS TO BE PAID BY THE BUYER).

$747.60 Buy nowCharcoal by Mary Felton (18in. x 24in.)
"The largest granite monument in the western hemisphere, "Faith" is an 80 foot tall statue in Plymouth, MA that overlooks the harbor where the Pilgrims landed. On her four sided base are relief sculptures that represent the ideals set forth in the founding of our nation: Morality, Liberty, Law and Education. Her name is Faith and she points to heaven symbolizing our forefather's commitment to glorifying God in all things. Compared to ancient countries like Egypt, China and Greece, at 250 we are very new. What most people don't realize is that, even though very young, we have the OLDEST government on the planet. It looks like the Founding Fathers got it right. Happy Birthday America!"Artwork purchased online can be picked up AFTER the exhibit ends, on or after August 2, 2026 -- or shipped to the buyer (ALL SHIPPING COSTS TO BE PAID BY THE BUYER).

$350.00 Buy nowMixed Media by Roxanne Horvath (16in. x 20in.)
"Today, our symbols, such as the American flag, the Declaration of Independence, and the Constitution, seem under attack, shredded and fragmented by division. This piece is a hopeful response to that reality. It speaks to the belief that we, as a people, can come together, reorganize, and weave the fabric of our nation back into a stronger whole. The colors woven throughout the work are metaphorical, representing the diversity of our population: white, black, yellow, red, and brown. At the center is a needlepoint aid, a tool that guides the act of weaving and repair. Surrounding it are small, colorful pinheads, scattered and disorganized, symbolizing us as individuals. As these elements become ordered and connected, they form the outer ring, representing our collective strength. The work reflects the aspiration expressed in the Preamble to the Constitution: that by working together, we can strive to create "a more perfect Union."Artwork purchased online can be picked up AFTER the exhibit ends, on or after August 2, 2026 -- or shipped to the buyer (ALL SHIPPING COSTS TO BE PAID BY THE BUYER).

"This work shows a colonial battleship with the Declaration of Independence written upon the sails. As we sail through the seas of time on our quest for liberty for all we pass through the challenges of war and cultural revolution. Around the painting we see the spirits of the revolutionary war, the civil war, abolition, women’s suffrage, the civil rights movement, 9-11, free speech, protest and patriotism. All the events of our 250 year history as a nation and all the voices of our many diverse people join together to manifest great meaning to the words “we the people” The sails are full and the waves break on the bow as we sail on more perfect union."Artwork purchased online can be picked up AFTER the exhibit ends, on or after August 2, 2026 -- or shipped to the buyer (ALL SHIPPING COSTS TO BE PAID BY THE BUYER).

"I was inspired by the Buffalo Soldiers, the first group of Black men to serve in the regular U.S. Army. They assisted in the Spanish American War by storming Cuba and likely passed through St. Augustine as part of the mobilization to Cuba. This piece offers a historical rendition of what that may have looked like, and it challenges the racial barriers and prejudices that sought to limit Black Americans' roles in military service and public life."Artwork purchased online can be picked up AFTER the exhibit ends, on or after August 2, 2026 -- or shipped to the buyer (ALL SHIPPING COSTS TO BE PAID BY THE BUYER).

$500.00 Buy nowMixed, Photo-encaustic by M. Kathleen Warren (24in. x 12in.)
"Our Declaration of Independence states that "all men are created equal" with the unalienable right to liberty, but we see a gap between their words and reality which was only bridged decades later. In the background photograph for the piece, I saw the stark contrast between the lives of those without liberty and the lives of those they served who lived in warm light and comfort. The left side collage, including letter excerpts from my great-great-grandfather who was a plantation owner in SC, hints at what this denial of liberty meant for some. It was only during and after the Civil War in the USA that the right to liberty, denied to so many, was formally granted to these people by the Emancipation Proclamation."Artwork purchased online can be picked up AFTER the exhibit ends, on or after August 2, 2026 -- or shipped to the buyer (ALL SHIPPING COSTS TO BE PAID BY THE BUYER).
