BUY ART WITH YOUR HEART

INDUSTRY CITY @industrycity is proud to sponsor [ BUY ART WITH YOUR HEART ] with TANYA WEDDEMIRE GALLERY @tanyaweddemiregallery

A symposium that brings four art collectors together during BLACK HISTORY MONTH to share their experiences of acquiring art and the profound impact it has on their lives.

This discussion emphasizes the importance of supporting Black and Brown artists and Black Owned Galleries.

This conversation will not only showcase ART as an object but as a meaningful reflection of the artist’s narrative, the cultural moment, the issues shaping our generation and highlighting how art acquisition becomes an act of cultural caretaking and empowerment.

We welcome four dynamic art collectors :

PANELISTS

✨ NIYA BASCOM | @williamandpearlgallery

✨ AYO WATFORD | @ayoddara

✨ GUY STANLEY PHILOCHE | @guystanleyphiloche

✨ KATHLEEN MAIGNAN | @kitteakat

They convey that buying art is not only about aesthetics; it’s about choosing pieces that resonate emotionally and living with works that carry history, identity, and purpose.
