About
Overview
DeVos Place and Convention Center invites artists to submit work for Between Worlds: Where Memory Lives, an exhibition inspired by the traditions and enduring spirit of Dia de Los Muertos. Work may reflect on memory, ancestry, family, identity, loss, celebration, or the ways we honor and carry forward those who have shaped our lives. Both traditional and contemporary interpretations are welcome. Artists do not need to work specifically with Dia de Los Muertos imagery; work that engages more broadly with the universal experience of remembrance is welcome.
