HerStory: A Celebration of Black Female Artists

Thursday, February 11, 2021 - 7:00pm to 8:00pm
Virtual

Leadership and Arts Coalition partnered with artist Jahne Brown to curate an hour online event that displays the work of black women.

HerStory, is the brain-child of the artist Jahne Brown. The idea originated from the focus of celebrating and uplifting black women artistry while giving viewers a glimpse of what is like for black women in today's society.

This event will provide a platform for black women and women-identifying artists, writers, and creatives to reflect on their thoughts of the current placement and status of black women in today's society and how that impacts a definition of success.

You will see art displayed across 3 categories:

- Music/Poetry/Spoken Words

- Multimedia (sculpture, video, 3D works)

- Visual Art and Design (2D works, illustrations, photography)

Who Should Attend: This online event is for art enthusiasts of all ages. Creators, consumers, and connoisseurs alike. We will all be gathering to celebrate the strength of Black Women through art.
