Haitians from the Diaspora: Creativity & Focus will present the works of four photographers living in the U.S. who are capturing images of their fellow Diaspora. This exhibition will focus on the intersections of politics, art, space, and tradition versus contemporary culture. Exhibiting photographers are Micha\u00eblle Chapoteau, Marie-Jeanne Fethi\u00e8re, Richard Louissaint, and Jean Marcelin.<\/p>\n
