About the project

A collective of 6 young creatives set out to rebrand and redefine black history month,  create black history and provide a space to generate wider conversation around our impact and legacy through interdisciplinary arts.

As the young creators of tomorrow, we’re passionate about diversifying spaces and making art accessible to all, belonging to all. We are the voices that don’t often get heard, seeking to bring together new and established audiences on a mission to re-educate the masses on relevant topics and generate necessary conversations to affect change.

Brought together through the Creative Ideas Fund programme run by Spotlight funded by Apple, the collective continue to explore their chosen art forms aiming to run reoccurring pop up exhibitions using the launch event and open exhibition as a pilot.
