About The Exhibition<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Make it Home<\/em> investigates the multiplicities of the ways \u201chome\u201d is defined, then understood. The gallery brings together the work of artists Ann L\u00ea, H\u00f9ng Vi\u1ec7t Nguy\u1ec5n,<\/strong> and Th\u1ecbnh Nguy\u1ec5n<\/strong> across photographs, textiles, mixed media, paintings, and conceptual interventions to look at how \u201chome\u201d is continually reassembled, reimagined, and retold, shaped by the people and life practices we choose to carry on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

About The Vietnamese American Arts & Letters Association<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

VAALA was founded in 1991 by a group of Vietnamese American journalists, artists, and friends to fill a void in the community and provide a space for newly resettled immigrant artists to express themselves. VAALA\u2019s mission is to connect and enrich communities through Vietnamese art and culture. Historically run entirely by volunteers, VAALA is a community-based non-profit organization. Over the years, VAALA has collaborated with diverse community partners to organize numerous cultural and artistic events. VAALA\u2019s four core programs include the annual Viet Film Fest, Viet Book Fest, multi-art exhibitions, and Gallery Beyond Walls, featuring free art workshops for youth and community members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
