In the People of Chelsea Project, photographer Darlene DeVita offers an up-close look at the diverse, and resilient, community of Chelsea, MA. A resident of the city since 2004, from day one DeVita was inspired by Chelsea's rich history, culture, and community. In the 30 plus images found in this show, DeVita highlights through portraits and words the diversity, passion, and love for humanity found in this unique city in addition to the impact of COVID-19 on the tight knit community.
Join us on September 14th for a reception and a panel discussion about the perspective the photographs lend to the City of Chelsea. Our wonderful panelists include: Norieliz DeJesus (Chelsea City Council/Affordable Housing Trust Fund Board), Emily Menjivar (Chelsea High Student), Kyle Brown (Artist), Lourdes Alvarez (Communication and Community Outreach Manager), Sarah Putnam (Bilingual Collaborator on the People of Chelsea Project), and Darlene DeVita (Photographer).
