About this Event

Heavy continental breakfast and coffee follwed by discussion

Join artist Althea Jones for an intimate conversation exploring the profound role art has played in the homes of Black families throughout history. This discussion will highlight how art has been more than just decoration, but a vital expression of culture and identity. Althea will guide us through the rich tradition of art in Black homes and media. Together, we will examine how art has been and will continue to be passed down, and cherished within families, serving as both a personal and collective form of expression.
