On display this month at Stove Works here in Chattanooga, “The People’s Gallery” is an exhibition that highlights a few grassroots chapters of this city’s past through art.

This Saturday, from 5 PM to 9 PM, the exhibition will host a night market and a panel discussion at Stove Works.

Michael Gilliland is organizing director for CALEB, a nonprofit coalition of labor, faith and community organizations in Chattanooga.
