You Are Here: Mapping Black Life and Autonomy in Jacksonville
About this Event
Join us for the opening reception of You Are Here: Mapping Black Life and Autonomy in Jacksonville on June 18, 2026, from 6:00 PM–8:00 PM. Enjoy a casual evening of art, conversation, and community with a cash bar available throughout the event.
This exhibition explores the histories of LaVilla, Sugar Hill, and North Davis Street—once-thriving Black communities shaped by resilience, connection, and self-sufficiency before being transformed by urban renewal and displacement. Through oral history and archival research, the exhibition reflects on what was lost, what remains, and how memory and place continue to shape Jacksonville’s Black history.
Featuring work by local artists Noelle Barber, Joshua Parks, Deshonna Buchanon, and Hahau Yisrael.
