| Abstract |
This catalog documents the "Nation of Immigrants" exhibition, held from September 13 to October 24, 2014, at the Utah Cultural Celebration Center. Curated by Namon Bills, the exhibition explores the diverse stories and experiences of immigrants to the United States, from historical accounts like the Mayflower journey to contemporary narratives. It features a collection of artwork across various media by artists, many of whom are immigrants themselves. The catalog emphasizes the shared cultural heritage of America as a nation of immigrants, highlighting the courage, determination, and hope that drive individuals to leave their homes and build new lives in unfamiliar surroundings. It aims to foster unity and celebrate this shared heritage, coinciding with the Smithsonian's "Journey Stories" traveling exhibit on migration. |
