“Black History Month is not simply asking ‘How can I remember and learn about black people?’ It is all of us asking, ‘How can we love black people by seeing them, hearing them, and creating a world where black people feel loved, inspired, and protected?’”
-dante stewart

We’re celebrating Black History Month with the 3rd annual Black History Month Open Mic, hosted by Golden Light Poetry! Created to amplify, honor, and highlight black voices, stories, artists, and revolutionaries! <3  Sign up early for the open mic by emailing agoldenlightpoetry@aol.com.

We’ve got a geometrically abstract visual art pop-up from Ibn you won’t want to miss! Art will be on view all weekend and ready to go home the same day.
