We Belong Here

WE BELONG HERE is a public art project collaboration that harnesses the power of creative expression in partnership with local artists and institutions, transforming our campus into a vibrant canvas of resistance. Large-scale projections and neon signs displayed on LA Plaza's exterior walls explore themes of the immigrant and undocumented experience, resilience, and call out the injustices affecting the communities of Los Angeles. The five partnering institutions are, LA Plaza de Cultura y Artes (LAPCA), California Community Foundation (CCF Headquarters), Social and Public Art Resource Center (SPARC), Japanese American National Museum (JANM), and the Museum of Latin American Art (MOLAA). Each site presents a distinct selection of images reflecting its own artistic and cultural perspective. The We Belong Here initiative is presented in partnership with Am I Next , a public movement led by CCF that stands against silence in the face of growing injustice.
