Through My ARTchives: Pop Up Showing

This exhibit is a love letter to the artists, culture & history that shapes our city. That shaped Me.

Join ToyaGotTheShot for a Special Night of Art, Community, and Celebration during Bards & Brews Open Mic!!Through My ARTchives: A Photography Showcase—

For the past 17 months, I’ve had the absolute honor of serving as the resident photographer for Bards & Brews Open Mic, held every 2nd Wednesday at The Silver Cow and beautifully curated by Keri Mezo of Bold City Music. Now, I have the privilege of showcasing some of those moments—alongside many more—giving you a glimpse into the creative heartbeat of Jacksonville.

This exhibit is a love letter to the artists, culture, and history that shape our city. It features an eclectic mix of images highlighting modern Black history, women’s history, and the multifaceted artistry of Jacksonville. More than just a showcase, this is also a way to give back—raising funds to help local artists find spaces where they can create, share, and thrive.
