Our Brand Pillars
Together, weтАЩre shaping a new model for cultural preservation and community.
BAAтАЩs primary foundational center is our archive, which consists of both a digital and physical repository that documents, collects, and preserves the legacies of Black artists from Detroit & the Midwest region.
The Black Curatorial Institute (BCI) creates a new professional development opportunity for arts professionals unlike any currently available in the sector. It is a new learning center advancing the curatorial experience.┬а
Set to launch in 2027, DUO is a three-month residency that will support artist/curator pairs exploring experimental and contemporary practices rooted in Black cultural frameworks while drawing from the Archive and the BCI.
