Upcoming Exhibits

Black History Exhibit

From Embarrassment to Pride

January 11 - March 1, 2023

Artist Guylaine Conquet explores black hair history as it relates to her own experience and transition to natural. Black people have been conditioned to think of their hair as a tiresome, time-consuming burden. Many people don’t perceive black hair as a positive attribute and European hair textures are still seen as a standard of beauty. The messages conveyed in her work are the pleasures of being naturally beautiful, being yourself, embracing your difference. Information on The Crown Act is incorporated in this exhibition.

Opening Reception, Artist Talk Back and Hair Care Workshop on Friday, January 13. 5:30 – 8:30 pm.

Free Sip and Paint class with the artist for children aged 8 – 14 years on Saturday, February 4. 2:00pm – 4:00pm
