On a dark green background is a megaphone with lightning bolts coming out of it. From the megaphone, which is on the left of the thumbnail, there is "IN THEIR SHOES: ROOTS & ROUTES" in white in the middle with "POP-UP ART GALLERY" right below it in yellow. Below are the logos of ACLU-CT, Ben & Jerry's, UndocuAlly WestConn, and WestConn Libraries.

Pop-Up Art Gallery: In Their Shoes

Over the past few months, the ACLU of CT and Ben & Jerry’s CT has collected art from local artists around the theme of disrupting the harmful narrative that we’re seeing in the mainstream media around immigrants, refugees, and asylees. We are working in collaboration with WestConn to host a pop-up gallery to create a community space that uplifts the art we’ve received, celebrates our collective resilience and joy, and creates a space to engage with the WestConn community and partners. We will also be joined by Joanna Dreby, author of Surviving the Ice Age. We are hosting this free, public event on Monday, Nov. 24 from 4pm-6pm in the Ruth A Haas Library at WestConn's Midtown Campus.
