Trellus adult education team celebrated The Museum of Us, an art gallery created by our adult English language learners to express their personal stories. Over the course of the winter term our students spent a part of class time once a week working with different media. On the final art day, they chose one of their pieces for display and wrote an artist statement for it. Trellus is dedicated to empowering all immigrant, refugee, and underserved communities by removing barriers and providing supports. The Museum of Us project embodies this mission, and our students, instructors, and staff were honored to share this event with our neighbors, friends, family, and representatives from the staffs of Chicago Alderwoman Debra Silverstein and Illinois State Senator Ram Villavalam. #mytrellus #TheMuseumOfUs #TrellusVoices #EmpowerThroughArt #CommunityStories #ArtForChange #ImmigrantVoices #RefugeeStories (fb)
