The Mezzanine-level student-led CORE Gallery now features Lazos de Sangre: Home, a celebration of Hispanic/Latino Heritage Month organized by Mi Gente at PCA&D. In a statement by Yadiel De Jesus, Mi Gente Club president, DeJesus (’27, AGA) writes that the show’s theme, translates “To Bloodlines or Blood ties, which is interpreted in many different ways in this exhibition. Some see it as their family members, alive and/or ancestors long before, others see it as their ties to the environment or homeland, and some took it to mean their culture. Whatever way you interpret Lazos de Sangre, here you will find the artworks of people who create their own interpretations on what it means to them, and how this may connect to their idea of Home.” 

Lazos de Sangre: Home features the work of:
