Eyes on Our New Hometown: Photographic Perspectives from Louisville’s Immigrant Youth


With the support of the Louisville Metro Office of Youth Development, Kentucky Youth Advocates engaged twelve immigrant youth in Louisville in a youth voices project.  Using photography as their medium, students from Bosnia, Cuba, Iraq, Kosovo, Mexico, Syria, and Vietnam presented community strengths and challenges through their eyes.

The photography collection was exhibited at the Louisville International Airport, and can currently be seen at the Louisville Free Public Library, Iroquois Branch.
