About Hostile Terrain 94 & Our Sponsors

Hostile Terrain 94 (HT94) is a participatory art exhibition organized by the Undocumented Migration Project (UMP), and brought to Boston University by the College of Arts & Sciences and the BU Arts Initiative, with support from Latin American Studies, the College of General Studies, BU History Department, BU Archaeology Department, and the BU Hub.

The exhibition illuminates the humanitarian crisis occurring at the United States’ border, a crisis that has claimed over 3,200 lives since the 1990s and continues to do so each and every day.
