The Irma Freeman Center for Imagination and Women of Visions presents Shades of Black.
This exhibition opening is a part of First Friday, Unblurred: Penn Ave's Monthly Gallery Crawl.

“Shades of Black unfolds a narrative that transcends the monochrome stereotypes of yesteryears. It is an ode to the myriad of hues within the spectrum of blackness, where each shade embodies a unique story and a distinctive journey.
“This exhibition is a testament to the vibrancy that arises from the diversity of our people. Just as colors multiply, so does the richness of our experiences and cultures. Each work of art represents a chapter in the epic saga of overcoming adversities and rising above the constraints of societal expectations.” ---Cynthia Kenderson, President Women of Visions
