SUMMARY:On View: 2025 Lakou NOU Culminating Expo
DESCRIPTION:A week-long exhibition featuring the culmination of work from the Lakou NOU 2025 Artists-In-Residence.\n\nOn View\nSunday\, June 21 – Sunday\, June 28\, 2026 \nKafou Gallery\n1120 Washington Ave 2nd floor\nBrooklyn\, NY 11225 \nGallery Hours\nThursday – Friday 6-9pm\nSaturday 12-6pm\nSunday 12-6pm \n  \nHosted & Curated by Haiti Cultural Exchange and Kafou Gallery \nThe 2025 Lakou NOU Culminating Expo highlights four expressive and collaborative projects that seek to empower\, understand\, and archive the Haitian experience. This cohort of artists explore core themes of care\, familial connection\, and the Haitian community’s relationship to their homeplaces and the natural world. Lakou NOU artists-in-residence Bo Dautruche\, Georgie Exinord\, Cici Osais\, and Zarita Zevallos welcome us into a dynamic experience of oral history\, creative storytelling\, and visual art installations. \nThis free event and week-long exhibition presents the artists’ work in conversation with each other\, highlighting their distinct approach to unpacking stories and approaches to cultural preservation in Brooklyn. \nUnlike traditional artmaking\, where an artistic creation amplifies a sole perspective\, Lakou NOU residents generated their projects collaboratively with community members\, providing creative outlets to convey inner experiences and share histories that are rarely shared or often under-presented.  \nEstablished in 2016\, Haiti Cultural Exchange’s Lakou NOU artist residency program provides artists of Haitian descent with the opportunity to create and present new work by connecting their skills and talents to historically underserved Brooklyn neighborhoods\, home to generations of Haitians and Haitian-Americans: Crown Heights\, Canarsie\, East Flatbush\, and Flatbush. Lakou NOU artists develop collaborative community engagement projects that address neighborhood issues and highlight community assets. Artists in residence received individualized mentorship from HCX staff and interacted with each other as a cohort through discussion and support around topics relevant to Lakou NOU projects. HCX-facilitated additional professional development workshops and exchanges with a consortium of community stakeholders and creative placekeeping professionals. \nJoin us for the Expo Showcase on Sunday\, June 21\, 2026 from 2-6pm.\nDetails here » \n— \nThis program is made possible in part by the Jerome Foundation.
