A NOTE FROM THE CURATOR
"As someone who has grown up Mexican in a very Caucasian small Wyoming town, I've seen and experienced the way us brown folk can be treated and pushed to the outside of the community; I've also seen the incredible ways we've been invited in and included. Through both of these one thing has persisted, that is the community that we find and form in order to bolster each other and raise ourselves up”
"Juntos Florecemos" is an exhibition in celebration of Latiné artists, the art we make, and the ways our support for one another helps us rise above adversity. "
- Ismael Dominguez, 2024
