Portraits in Red: Missing & Murdered Indigenous Painting Project

The Umbrella Arts Center 40 Stow St., Concord

The MMIP Painting Project began not as a project at all but with the intent of it being just one painting to show support for the Missing & Murdered indigenous peoples crisis. Artist Nayana laFond created the first painting on May 5, 2020, the day of remembrance for MMIP. She shared it online and the response was so overwhelming she did one more, yet again intending that to be the end. The response to the second was even more and so Nayana opened her inbox to anyone wanting to be painted not expecting the 25+ the received the first day.Stories
