OUR HISTORY, OUR VOICES PROJECT
The Jennifer MacIsaac Exhibit
About Her Exhibit…
I have always wanted to learn how to make jewelry, metalsmithing to be exact. During quarantine I began to explore YouTube videos on the subject. I have been having a blast learning, and there is still so much I want to discover about this medium!
I have been incorporating healing stones in much of my work because I am a big believer in self care and self compassion. I feel like wearing stones that remind you of your personal intentions helps to keep them always in your thoughts, and where you place your thoughts is what you call into your life.

More Exhibits
The Allison Hong Merrill Exhibit
I'm a Taiwanese immigrant writer based in Utah. My work mostly centers around my upbringing in Chinese culture, which sadly, conditions women and girls to submit to men's will.
The Yvette Bodden Exhibit
I share these stories because I believe the spirit of a woman is one of a warrior. We are designed to withstand pain but the magic is in transforming it into greatness. Human beings have the power to create beauty from any circumstance, if the belief in self-worth and love is strong enough to bring yourself out of darkness.
The Katrina Julianne Scott Exhibit
I was taught from a young age that women were meant to be quiet and pleasant, never loud or angry. When I reached college, I encountered men who took advantage of that mindset and of my naivety. I soon found other women who shared those experiences and felt a similar sense of frustration towards the narrative expected of women.
