This exhibit is a follow-up to our virtual exhibit, Portraits in Refuge, from 2020. That first exhibit offered expressions of isolation, anxiety, peace, beauty, and optimism during our pandemic. The Emerging from Refuge exhibit builds on that earlier theme. The new exhibit recognizes that we are all tentatively emerging from the long confinement from the Covid-19 pandemic. The exhibit addresses several key questions:


How has your life been opening up, or not?


What has changed for you? Has returning to a more normal life brought comfort, new joy, or concerns, worries or anxiety?


​​What has changed for you?


While viewing this exhibit visitors are encouraged to contemplate and discuss how their lives may be different as they emerge from refuge:


What did you discover during confinement? What new activities will you continue? What will you now stop doing? How have you, your family or friends changed? What has changed around you and in your community? What have you learned? What will you miss? What will you not miss?
