2022 Exhibit
Becoming A Community Staple
Year two of Cultuvue (formerly called rePresent) saw a big increase in our community reach. The first year was an introduction, but year two was when we truly made our mark. Our ability to expand the exhibit played a key role in its success. We moved from a 1,300-square-foot space to one over 6,600 square feet. The community encouraged us to make it bigger, so with more time to prepare, we were able to showcase more powerful and inspiring images.
Changes in year two included the exhibit lasting 14 days, more media coverage, and the addition of Youth Day. We also learned the power of collections: a series of portraits that tell a larger story.
The result: we welcomed attendees from as far away as Tampa, Jacksonville, and Miami/Dade counties. The diverse mix of ethnic groups was encouraging, and we had more than 3,500 visitors.
HIGHLIGHTING THE COMMUNITY
Cultuvue™ is our gift to the world, and it allows viewers to experience culture curated through a new lens. Cultuvue™ maintains being a free, community-based initiative of KGI, which serves as a voice for the unsung, mis- and underrepresented people of color through the lens of the local community. Here's a sample of individuals featured in our 2022 exhibition.

We Must Admit, This Was Exciting
One of Cultuvue's goals is to show positive images through portrait art, along with detailed stories. These images and stories are shared in a free exhibition to help people improve their understanding of different cultures and communicate better with each other. Take a look at:
