Hamiltonian Artists and The Nicholson Project, two arts organizations dedicated to fostering emerging and mid-career artists, presented a sweeping six-month city-wide exhibition, I’ll meet you there, from March through September 2026. Showcasing the work of artists from the D.C. region, Stephanie J. Williams, Jermaine “jET” Carter, Edgar Reyes, and A.J. McClenon, I’ll meet you there showcased video works that consider what it means to inhabit a space of uneasy familiarity—recognizable, yet quietly destabilizing.

The exhibition unfolded across Washington, D.C. through a combination of storefront video screenings, outdoor mural installations, and a traveling 20-foot video billboard truck that transformed the city itself into a moving gallery.

The exhibition title is drawn from a line in “A Great Wagon” by the 13th-century poet Rumi, translated by Coleman Barks: “Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing, there is a field. I’ll meet you there.” The verse gestures toward a space of encounter—one that exists beyond binaries and certainty, rooted instead in openness and shared humanity. That spirit animates this project.

This project is supported by the DC Commission on the Arts and Humanities.
