Caption:
Rosemary Sloot’s Immigrant Series was inspired by the experiences of her own parents, who emigrated from the Netherlands to Canada in 1952. The paintings and drawings in the exhibition powerfully convey the family’s mixed feelings of anticipation and dislocation, joy and disappointment as they transitioned to their new lives in Canada. This version of the exhibition was made possible by the Association for the Advancement of Dutch American Studies with support from the Nyenhuis family. The museum is profoundly grateful to the artist for lending the artworks and for managing many logistical aspects of the exhibition.
The Kruizenga Art Museum functions as an educational resource for Hope College and the greater West Michigan community. The museum features two public galleries as well as a classroom and climate-controlled storage space for its 10,000-object permanent collection. It is named in honor of a leadership gift from Dr. Richard and Margaret Kruizenga, both of whom graduated from Hope in 1952.
Admission to the museum is always free, and the public is welcome.
Open Tuesday-Saturday 10:00 am-4:00 pm
