Raised in LA Exhibition Opening & Culmination Event

Raised in LA examines how identity takes shape through memory, place, and community. This exhibition reflects on Los Angeles as both a physical landscape and a collection of lived experiences. Using photographs from personal archives, familiar spaces, and community figures, the artists trace ways the city has left its mark on the person they are becoming. From early memories to present-day relationships, each image reveals Los Angeles as something both deeply internal and collectively created.

Artists from Esta Soy Yo: Childhood Nostalgia turn inward, reflecting on early memories through images of places and objects that hold personal histories. Digital Promotoras: Change Makers looks outward, capturing environmental portraits of community members whose presence and work leave lasting impact. Each artist explored how the city lives within them — and how they help shape the city around them.

The exhibition opening is made possible with the generous support of Angel City FC and NYX Professional Makeup. We are grateful to our partners for helping create space for our artists and their stories.
