Artist Janice Merendino, Ducktown, an Atlantic City Immigration Story

Artist Janice Merendino's exhibition called “Ducktown: An Atlantic City Immigration Story” is both beautiful and life affirming.
A granddaughter of immigrants, Janice went to visit the neighborhood where she grew up and found that the new residents have much in common with her own family history.
Her beautiful art and uplifting stories should be seen and heard by all Americans.
In a challenging time, Janice Merendino reminds us of who we truly are.

What a heartwarming concept. A considerable amount of discovery work went into this inspiring exhibition. Only a sensitive and loving person could pull this together in such a cohesive fashion. Thank you John for providing a window into this thoughtful and thought-provoking exhibit.

Good story that adds to the great History Of Ducktown.
I wish it would have given some additional context for the neighborhood roots. As an immigration story the Ducktown Neighborhood cannot be separated from St. Michael’s Church ,School,
And Theater. No Church no culture, no Families, no great memories that you shared.
Maybe another project for you!
