GREENVILLE MUSEUM OF ART INC

OPENING IN JUNE 2024, THE GREENVILLE MUSEUM OF ART (GMOA) WILL HOST "THE HOME I NEVER KNEW: NI DE AQUI, NI DE ALLA," A GROUP EXHIBITION OF ARTWORK BY LATINO/A/X ARTISTS FROM OR CURRENTLY LIVING IN THE SOUTHEAST REGION OF THE UNITED STATES. OUR CALL FOR ARTWORKS WILL INVITE LATINO/A/X ARTISTS TO SHARE ABOUT THEIR LIVES GROWING UP IN THIS REGION, INCLUDING HARDSHIPS, TRIUMPHS, AND EVERYTHING IN BETWEEN. RECLAIMING THE IDEA OF "NI DE AQUI, NI DE ALLA, OR NOT FROM HERE, NOR THERE," WE WILL HIGHLIGHT THE RANGE OF INDIVIDUAL AND SHARED EXPERIENCES ASSOCIATED WITH BEING BOTH "FROM HERE AND "FROM THERE," BELONGING OR NOT BELONGING, OR FEELING MENTALLY, EMOTIONALLY, OR CULTURALLY FROM ELSEWHERE. THIS PROJECT, ORGANIZED IN COLLABORATION WITH LOCAL ORGANIZATIONS CASA AZUL DE WILSON, THE ASSOCIATION OF MEXICANS IN NORTH CAROLINA (AMEXCAN), AND THE LEDONIA WRIGHT CULTURAL CENTER AT EAST CAROLINA UNIVERSITY (ECU), ADDRESSES THE LACKING REPRESENTATION OF LATINO/A/X VOICES IN OUR REGION.
