Take a closer look at the immersive exhibit created by Protégé .

What does a bus stop reveal about inequity? How does art expose the daily truths we all live? Through the distortion, of time, the feel of sound, and the touch of vision, we invite you to pick up the weight, and wait.

Protégé Jaillin Johnson is a busy bee! 🐝 That’s because the group exhibition, RACONTEUSE opens this Friday, April 1 from 6-9pm at Camp North End.

Jaillin will be highlighting how generational stories passed down from the mouth of elders to the ears of their subsequent kin are often how the history of Black and various African diasporic branches is spread and celebrated. As elders age — accumulate more stories and heirlooms — their minds become libraries and their homes become museums.

RACONTEUSE will also be open on Saturday, April 2 from 12-6pm, with an artist talk at 2pm!
