Join us for the opening of “Me, Here:” Stories of People and Place as told by the Barcroft Apartments Community to enjoy the creative ways in which the residents of Barcroft Apartments tell their stories of “Me, Here,” through Exhibit 3 of Sushmita Mazumdar’s Arlington Arts grant project Curating 4 Community Art Exhibits.
At Day 1’s evening event, listen to the contributors share and perform. In the exhibit, we find sky, trees, grass, stars, clouds, flowers, and leaves—all things that tell the stories of “Here.” Then learn how to make an artwork inspired by our young residents and take your own “Me, Here” home with you.
We will also be sharing a sneak peek of several oral history videos of Barcroft residents in Exhibit 4, “We Are Barcroft: A 60-Acre History of People & Place,” a grant project funded by Arlington County Historic Preservation Fund!
Light refreshments will be served.
