Preserving Legacies, Elevating Voices
The Black Artists Archive is a new and vital organization dedicated to preserving the legacy and elevating the voices of Detroit’s Black visual artists. As we embark on this important journey, we’re laying the foundation for future generations by documenting the contributions of Black artists and creating dynamic spaces for creativity, learning, and community. Through our developing core programs, we are just beginning the crucial work of safeguarding Black art history while empowering emerging artists and curators. Together, we can ensure that Detroit’s Black artistic heritage thrives for generations to come.
Introducing...
The Black Curatorial Institute at the Black Artists Archive
As the social expectations of art museums change, this course equips arts professionals and enthusiasts alike with the skills to recognize and challenge systemic biases while building inclusive, equitable environments in the art world.
“Curatorial work that centers Black voices through Black archival traditions is essential to Black communities."
