ECHOES OF OUR JOURNEY” SPONSORSHIP RESERVATION
Six (6) participating artists, who live and work at the new Bronzeville Artist Lofts (BAL), in the heart of Bronzeville on 47th Street, will use the original doors from their historic residence, the renovated building that housed the Ben Franklin Store, historically known as the world’s only black-owned and operated department store owned by the legendary policy kings the Jones Brothers. By re-purposing these landmark artifacts, the BAL artists attempt to reawaken the spirit of this historical period in Black History and con-temporize these stories for a new generation. As a collective, we talked about the doors as conduits, containing the spirit or echoes of the many people who passed through them. We wanted to give those voices life again by creating works that not only acknowledged the triumphs and tears of the great travels that they took but to also celebrate their humanity and the community they built in Bronzeville, which became their haven and place of rest.
