Overview
LAND studio is proud to host its inaugural gallery exhibition, You Mean the World, a Greater Cleveland campaign and exhibit that shares stories, info, and portraits of immigrants who have come to Cleveland.
You Mean the World campaign and exhibit was born when a group of non-profit leaders, creatives and a pastor brainstormed ways to tell a different story about immigration in America. The goal was not to tell a different story for a different story's sake. This campaign is reflective of a true story, a multi-faceted story, and a story that is vibrant, joyful and good. It is a Cleveland story.
Cleveland has a long tradition of welcoming immigrants and refugees from all walks of life. Through compassion and unity, our community continues to grow stronger, more vibrant, and more connected.
You Mean the World has a simple message: immigration works. This campaign shares the portraits, the experiences, and the facts and figures that tell this story.
