iammigration: haitian colors

A Multimedia Galley Installation and Experience with four, internationally recognized local Haitian artists: Michele David, Bitho Faustin, Miriam Pitte, and Sylvestre Telfort.

You are invited to wonder – with us – about the shared human experience of migration. We have all experienced it – sometimes literally, sometimes metaphorically, sometimes with support, and sometimes all alone in the dark. This season we focus on the experience of four Haitian artists whose journey and wisdom are shared through their work.

Currently installed and available from Thursday, September 14 through Friday, October 27, 2023.

The Gallery @ Sanctuary is Open:
  • Thursdays (4 – 6 pm)
  • Saturdays (10 am – 12 noon)
  • Facilitated Group Showing by appointment
  • Other Drop-in Hours available by Appointment
  • It is helpful to confirm drop-in via email (in case of staff illness or other conflicts)
