La Frontera: The Border
October 2 - November 3, 2023Latino Arts Project utilizes art to bring communities together and address important social issues. Art has a unique ability to capture emotions and tell stories that might be difficult to convey through other means.
La Frontera: The Border creates a multi-sensory focus on undocumented immigrants crossing the southern border into the United States; shedding light on the lives lost during these journeys.
This exhibit aims to increase awareness and understanding of the complex issues surrounding immigration by humanizing the experience.
“No matter the time of day, I would see people going through the exhibit. Spending time looking, reading, and watching the videos. The staff reported consistently seeing people exploring the exhibit and contemplating the heartache felt for those crossing with the hopes of a better life. Very emotional.”
