A Place Where I Belong is an exhibition that pulls together a community around the theme of belonging. This exhibition is in honor of Iyoko Mitsuda Laffin, a friend and colleague of many of the artists featured. The exhibition brings her work together with other works by artists, providing these artists a place to feel secure and safe to share their work with each other.

Bitson Jean, curator, explains “These artists gave me the license to create this show, A Place Where I Belong. My first exhibition as a curator, I sought artists whose work conveyed this sense of community and home in their art. Please enjoy this talented group of artists and share in this opportunity to honor Iyoko through this exhibition.”
