This soft opening is June 29 in a storefront at 251 Post Street 
Union Square. 

The exhibition theme this year for 2023 is MOTHERHOOD. We will discuss what MOTHERHOOD means to us. We will investigate the social conditions that profoundly impact Black mothers. Black mother figures who work towards a collective resistance against a systemically violent society: black mothers gynecologically experimented upon, dating back to slavery, black mothers trafficked and raped, disrupting their ability to claim their own bodies and become caregivers to their children, black mothers incarcerated, addicted forcing them to be absent from themselves and their children, Black mothers so impacted by society, they lose their minds, their homes, and their families, Black mothers who fear for their children while reminding them that their lives have endless possibilities, and Black mothers that assume the roles of MOTHERHOOD without having children or recognition. 

What are the ways we as artists can honor all the ways Black mothers show up in our Community so that we can move towards generational healing trauma,  and in doing so, we create art as ritual practices that heal us through our divine feminine selves?

 The main exhibition will be on October 19, 2023

Thank you in advance for participating in this powerful exhibit. I look forward to seeing all of your work.
