Borderlands Trip Exhibit Reception

Mon, May 18, 2026 • 6:00pm - 7:30pm (1h 30m) • Weitz Center, White Space 226 & 229 and Weitz 236
A group of ten Carleton students and two faculty stand together smiling at the base of the wall at the Mexico-U.S. border. On the right, homes and vegetation sit close to the fence. The sky is clear and bright blue, and several people in the group hold cameras.

During the spring break, a group of 10 Carleton students and two faculty members participated in the inaugural Borderlands Trip. This trip invites students to explore the realities of migration and community life along the U.S.–Mexico border through art, language, and social justice. Now that they are back, they are ready to share their experience through the Borderlands Exhibit.

Join us for the exhibit reception! The students will present artwork reflecting their personal experiences in the Borderlands trip. Photography, videography, glass, sculpture. The purpose of the exhibit is to share with the Carleton community their experiences over the 10 days. The exhibit will be on display for a couple of weeks at the Weitz Center in White Space 226 & 229.
Light refreshments will be available during the reception.
