Viewed Through the Lens:

There's No Place Like Home

Our 2006 exhibit showed images of the homes Danish Immigrants left behind and a few of the homes they built or lived in in their new homeland.

In this category many of the entries show the differences and similarities between the emigrants' homes in Denmark and their new homes in the U.S.
