Reception

What comes to mind when you think of home? Regardless of where we are from, everyone has a different story to tell.

AT HOME: TOO FAR, TOO CLOSE is an exhibition of fourteen stories from fourteen people who have immigrated to Newfoundland and Labrador from around the world and chose here as their home.  Their stories are told through photographs and objects.

Join us for an opening reception. This evening includes access to the exhibition, a cash bar, light refreshments, and live music.

An exhibition presented for Come Home Year. Presented in partnership with The Association for New Canadians.

This is a free event. Masks are encouraged.
