About the event
International House was established in 1981 to be a symbol of tolerance, understanding, and compassion to the international community. Our organization was opened to be a cultural center that provides people with the opportunities to learn, share, experience, and understand our neighbors, and to make lasting connections and friendships.
With Blumenthal Arts and International House partnering together for the Charlotte International Arts Festival, we are excited to present for the fourth year: The Journey.
This project focuses on the use of visual arts to illustrate the harrowing, complicated, and hope-filled journeys our immigrant and refugee neighbors take to come to the United States.
Join us, at The Knight Theater, on September 13th at 5:30PM for The Journey Exhibit. That Friday kicks of the start of the Charlotte International Arts Festival.
International House is thrilled to announce that this year, The Journey, will feature voting throughout the Charlotte International Arts Festival from Blumenthal Arts. After the first weekend of CIAF, you'll be able to explore the meaningful artwork of twenty foreign-born artists at Legion Brewing in South Park (5610 Carnegie Boulevard, Charlotte, NC 28209). Additionally, you will be able view the artists' profiles and their works on our website, where you'll have the opportunity to cast your vote for your favorite piece. Online voting will be open from September 13 to September 29.
