Woman Made Gallery presents \"Routes & Roots,\" a juried virtual exhibition exploring immigration and migration through the work of women and non-binary artists. On view May 18–June 30, 2026.

Juried by Eliana Miranda, the exhibition takes its name from the two forces shaping every immigrant story: the paths we travel and the ties we carry. Selected works span border crossings and ordeals, exile and quiet acts of belonging, cultural hybridity, intergenerational memory, and more.
