In the words of our great prophet, Bad Bunny, \u201cThe only thing more powerful than hate is love.\u201d<\/p>\n

As I put this exhibition together, I kept thinking about how difficult it can be to navigate our country\u2019s politics\u2014and life itself. Yet, these photographs filled with love, tenderness, and beauty offer a wonderful tonic to the darkness we face today.<\/p>\n

LOVE is more important than ever. If we lead our lives with kindness and compassion, we truly can build a better world.<\/p>\n

Thank you to everyone who submitted work\u2014you\u2019ve given us respite and inspiration.<\/p>\n

So today (and tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow), give someone a hug, a compliment, a kindness. The world needs it.<\/p>\n
