‘The Road Home’ Photography Exhibit Addresses Identity Displacement

Mercer County Community College’s (MCCC’s) James Kerney Campus Gallery (JKCG) will host its next photography exhibit: “The Road Home: Migrations, Displacement and Redefining Where We Live.”
The show runs from March 1 through March 31, 2022 with in-person and virtual artist receptions on Wednesday, March 2 at 12 noon and 6:30 p.m. live and on Zoom. Proceeds of sales of limited works will go to support the artists or may be donated to a charity of each artist’s choice.

JKC Gallery Director, Michael Chovan-Dalton remarked, “The Road Home is a compilation of works from around the globe which showcases the photographers, journalists and visual storytellers who have experienced different forms of identity displacement. The show gives participating artists the option to sell their works to support themselves or to donate the sales to charity. JKC Gallery will make up to three prints of each work as they are sold.”

“This show is a true visual conversation which tells a story through images and words about the struggles of migration,” Chovan-Dalton said.
