The first ever Black Art Expo will be presented by The Center for Black Excellence and Culture on Saturday, Dec. 2 from 12–5 p.m at Fountain of Life Covenant Church, located at 633 Badger Road. The event will offer an opportunity for everyone in south-central Wisconsin and beyond to see, buy, and appreciate art, learn creative skills, support Black artists, and be inspired for future creative expression. The Black Art Expo is free to attend.
In addition to some 20 exhibiting artists and vendors, the Black Art Expo will offer a range of experiences combining live art-making demos, music, poetry, and opportunities to buy books and specialty, small-batch, and handmade items from Black business owners.
Throughout the day, attendees will enjoy art talks, watch art-making demos, listen to music and poetry readings, and participate in hands-on art activities. Art making demos will include painting, printmaking, and pottery. Families can take part in free hands-on art and craft projects in a kids’ area.
