]]> Art of Love
Valentine’s Day is just around the corner, making today a great time to begin getting in the mood for the amorous holiday. Although many associate it with romantic love for a partner or object of desire, love comes in many shapes, sizes, and forms, of course.

The Cambridge Art Association has hosted an annual celebration of the Art of Love for two decades. What makes this event unique is the artwork it showcases, all of which is created by the talented hands and minds of special needs children from numerous schools in the Greater Boston area.

Today from 2pm to 4pm EST, the Cambridge Art association will hold a reception just for the yearly Art of Love exhibit. Children are welcome to the free event, and attendees will be served refreshments and will enjoy a performance by the Cambridge School of Weston’s Pocket Players, a touring children’s theatrical troupe that presents works in American Sign Language and spoken English. There will even be face-painting for the truly bold and playful.

The Art of Love exhibit runs through February 26 at University Place Gallery (124 Mount Auburn Street, Cambridge, 617-876-0246). The hours are Monday through Friday from 9am to 6pm and Saturdays from 9am to 1pm.
