A Call to Action is a creative dialogue among ten artists addressing the open ended statement – Yes we can - yes we did – but we're not done. Each artist, through their own creative lens offers insight to the impact of the most important event in 2009 – the inauguration of a Black President.

 

While showcasing the individual responses to an event that has defined the end of the first decade of the new millennium, this creative alliance is an attempt to understand and appreciate different perceptions.

 

This Black History Month exhibition features work by Dayo, Carolyn Elaine, Kendall Glover, Malika, Stuart McClean, Max Sansing, Wanaki Shores-Navata, Tony Smith, Nina Smoot-Cain, and Buchi Upjohn.
