This project is deeply close to my heart, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to create opportunities for women to explore visibility, voice, and creative expression through art.

I’m honored to announce that I’ve received two grants from the @bkartscouncil— through the Brooklyn Arts Fund and Local Arts Support — for my upcoming project Being Seen: Art, Photography, and Writing Workshops for Women from Marginalized Communities.

Huge thanks to our panelists—leaders in mental health, the arts, and social justice— for their insights.
We’re so grateful to everyone who came, listened, and engaged. This is just the beginning of continuing the conversation around healing through art.

Last week’s panel discussion about Being Seen was a powerful evening of connection, creativity, and conversation. Hosted by @housingplus_nyc, @fivemyles, @bkartscouncil, the event showcased the transformative impact of photography, writing, and art-making on women from marginalized communities.

Last December, I had the honor of curating this exhibition, which brought together five incredible women photographers exploring community and portraiture with dignity and respect. It was such a meaningful show, and I’m grateful to everyone who came out to support it!
