In commemoration of Black History Month, the Arsenal Gallery is pleased to present Faith, Courage & Purpose: Artists of the Diaspora, an exhibition of over twenty paintings by Betty Blayton, Stacey Brown, Leroy Campbell, James Denmark, Essud Fungcap, April Harrison and Charly Palmer. Curated by Karen and Sharon Mackey, founders of Mackey Twins Fine Art, this exhibition is sparked by their unyielding commitment to educate and expose people to artists of color. These Diaspora artists’ “faith” and “courage” have enabled them to continue on course in spite of racial adversity and exclusion.
