“Like branches on a tree, our lives may grow in different directions yet our roots remain as one.”- Unknown

As “The People’s Museum” we are proudly supported by our members, who are helping us build a vibrant, diverse,and creative community. Our 2026 Members Showcase, From Roots to Branches hopes to celebrate the talents of our members while highlighting their culture and heritage.

Culture and heritage live within us, around us and alongside us; it is part of what makes us unique, and what connects us. Expressions like the art we create or how our families gather are representations of how our culture is alive. We invite our members to share work that captures how their culture and heritage has shaped them. 

Eligible members are welcome to submit up to two (2) works they believe best captures their creativity, artistic merit and vision. Submitted works may be done in any medium but must represent themes of family, culture and heritage. Family portraits, works depicting cultural celebrations or reflections on heritage are all welcome. 

Additionally, eligible members are welcome to submit up to one (1) work to the In Memoriam portion of the gallery, where they can share art by a loved one who has passed away.
