Creating Community: We Are All Here

The place where an artist is based can significantly impact their work. Similarly, artists influence their communities in profound ways. With a focus on artists from North Carolina, Creating Community explores the relationships between artist and place.

This installation considers the work of artists who immigrated to North Carolina, as well as those originally from the state, and the many ways that community may be represented through photography, sculpture and textiles. Visitors are encouraged to take part in Creating Community through sketching and sharing their own reflections on origins and place in this gallery.
