TheTHIRDFloor Presents: First Friday Art Walk

🎨✨ Must-See Stop on the First Friday Art Walk: ✨🎨

Two Black Ravens Foundation proudly hosts a provocative new show to Springfield’s First Friday Art Walk, spotlighting the fearless work of REDACTED — a rising force in veteran art and unapologetic activism. Known for pushing boundaries and igniting conversations, REDACTED’s limited-series exhibition fuses digital media with raw storytelling to challenge perspectives and ignite dialogue about freedom, service, sacrifice, and the American experience. Don’t miss this rare opportunity to witness the work that’s captivated socialites and the cultural elite — from private salons in New York to underground galleries in Los Angeles. Join us on THETHIRDFLOOR at the historic Gillioz for an unforgettable night where art holds up a mirror to our times — and nothing is off-limits. Be part of the conversation. Be part of the experience. See REDACTED.
