Village Center for the Arts is proud to feature the expressive and inspiring work of Don Thorn as our December Featured Artist.

Fueled by the rich cultural mix of music, skateboarding, punk, and hip-hop, Don began his artistic path in Newburgh, NY, where he first connected with graffiti. After moving to Queens, his art transformed from street murals to canvas, allowing him to explore deeper emotional themes and personal growth.

In 2023, during a pivotal time in his life, Don entered a rehabilitation program where he rediscovered art as a source of healing and self-expression. This period became a catalyst for his renewed purpose, leading to a body of work that is both vulnerable and empowering. This experience further empowered him to unearth his unique artistic voice and language.

“I believe everybody has a creative side, whether they know it or not,” he says. “It’s their own form of expression.”

Join us at Village Center for the Arts in celebrating Don’s journey and powerful artwork this December. His exhibit serves as a reminder of art’s ability to heal, connect, and transform.
Don’s paintings will be available to view for the month of December.
