Join us for an open community event where residents are invited to bring in family photographs, keepsakes, or letters to share in a communal setting. Diana, our 2025 Fellow, will offer guidance on how to preserve and digitize these materials as well as lead an informal conversation on how visual histories shape identity. We hope that this exchange of memories creates a safe space of intergenerational learning.&nbsp;&nbsp;
*Participants should bring family recipes, photographs, letters and/or art to share with the collective.&nbsp;
About our 2025 Fellow, Diana:
Diana is an artist and educator based in Hauppauge, NY, and a proud mother of four. Her work explores memory, identity, and the hidden spaces within family archives, often using photography and performance to construct new narratives from absence. Diana received an MFA from Stony Brook University in 2025, where her thesis exhibition&nbsp;Constructing a Past&nbsp;was shown at the Paul W. Zuccaire Gallery. Alongside this work, she's been developing&nbsp;Americanized, a project that reflects on assimilation and erasure through altered family photographs. Balancing motherhood and art-making is at the heart of her practice, shaping both the stories she tells and the communities she hopes to reach.
