Seven years ago today, Mayor Emily Larson declared Anne Labovitz Day in Duluth, Minnesota. I’m still humbled and grateful.

122 Conversations: Person to Person, Art Beyond Borders began with listening — real dialogue with people across Duluth’s five sister cities, spanning four continents, united by art building peace one individual at a time.

From those conversations, an exhibition was born. It traveled to Thunder Bay, Canada; Växjö, Sweden; Petrozavodsk, Russia; Isumi-City, Japan; and Rania, Kurdistan Region of Iraq, and to Washington, D.C. and Kansas, lived at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport for five years, and is currently installed at the Minnesota State Capitol.

Thank you to every single person who was part of this journey.
