In honor of the 100th anniversary of the formal national celebration of Black History Month in the U.S., we’re putting together an intimate exhibition centered around Black artists as culture-bearers, storytellers, and visionaries told in their own words and artistry. We’ll reflect and engage in dialogues about legacy, process and the future of Black creativity.
