About this Event

Overview

540WMain Legacy Exhibition: The Final Chapter is a one-night-only event honoring nine years of grassroots, community-centered social justice education in Rochester and beyond. Through visual art, storytelling, and archival materials, this exhibition reflects on the mission that guided 540WMain—disrupting injustice through education and collective action. Together, we’ll celebrate the people, partnerships, and communities who shaped the organization’s impact since 2016, marking the official closure of 540WMain’s operations.
