Opening July 9th at Moremen Gallery, the photographs in this exhibit trace a six-year journey that began in 2020, during the pandemic lockdown that ravaged the world as we knew it. Though many of us were at home, sheltered in place, the unhoused were still on the streets then and now.

Ed “Nardie” White Shares Portland Memories
“Portland was a closed community in a big metropolitan city. When you think about Louisville, you think about it as a big metropolitan city. But Portland was a definite city that was a community of its own. You had a pocket on Short Street. You had a pocket at St. Xavier. Owen Alley up here…that was a pocket. Those were all Black families. So we lived in clusters all around Portland. We lived in this 20-block radius. I lived between 21st street to 29th Street, that was my core area where I lived, and everybody knew everybody from generations.”
