Join us as we take a look at Shreveport's Past, PRESENT, and Future history. We will explore Black visual artist's works through an unapologetic lense.

This exhibit was created to evoke thought, emotion, and action.

To create local transformative change with a global impact.

We are demanding to be seen without judgement and heard without retaliation.

This is BLACK ART in it's rawest form.
