Join our Founding Executive Director, Dr. Kelli Morgan, as she hosts “Angles & Archives,” the first in a series of in-person community dialogues about the importance of preserving Black cultural heritage in Detroit. Developed in partnership with The Black Canon, the focus of the first program in the series, and Someday Gallery & Bakehouse, our host venue. The series engages curators, archivists, cultural preservationists, and the public to examine how Black Detroiters have saved, cataloged, and continue to preserve Black art histories across media. This program serves our core mission and values in serving Black artists in Detroit and the Midwest region. Through open conversations, we will highlight the work that has happened in our community and seek to bring about a positive move forward. We will bring together esteemed Black artists, archivists, curators, and scholars to discuss the intersections of art, race, and public space. The conversation will explore the challenges and triumphs of Black artists in navigating traditional and non-traditional spaces, offering fresh perspectives on representation and visibility in the arts.
