Yes...Right here on Black Arc City.com, THIS October, Healthy Black Food re-appreciated through Art. Just like the old European Art Masters would draw the foods that Kings and Queens of those times would like to devour, we need to treat our bodies with majestic respect, and honour the traditional ways to offset richness in food, and curb poor eating, hence 'Green Banana'. Get involved.

2023
Apologies, you know the terrain isn't easy, but we are still around. Rome wasn't built in a day, but we will attempt to get things more 'on par' by the time of ONE LOVE ARTS & CULTURE 2024
More details on that to follow, but basically, that will be our next online focus.

We have some surprises in this series, and a few more gems too....
So watch this space for THAT.

 HERE NOW SOME MORE WICKED IMAGES FROM AFROPUNK

    This is aimed to be a powerful 'meditation' of African Diaspora Women creativity. An online expressive outlet on my website during the period following International Women's Day.

    This will be on Black Art City (.com). HERE.

    There will be the total equivalent of 1 Page* ..so space is limited. There's no 'theme' as such. Just whatever you're feeling to create right now.
    Last entry March 20th.
    May be a code entry exhibition. Not sure yet. Depends on the material.

    Looking for Visual Artists. Professional and 'non professional'...and a 'sprinkling' of original musicians and poets.

A couple of years ago, Summer went like THIS....

We're looking forward to Spring now, with our new online feature 'Lioness'



The sun is shining and we are feeling fine....check our Facebook Page for our latest activities....we are beginning to build up the structure more, and people who have now seen us around are more coming towards doing work with us...so that's really cool...

We will be representing at THE elephant and the Nun....over in Burgess Park Southwark....so look out for THAT...where it will be a fundraiser for the 'The Bleach Project'



Our latest project is 'The Bleach Project'...which aims to use Art to challenges the assumption that having light skin is better.


There will also be associated 'spin-offs' and plenty of chance to get involved, have fun and learn and teach, and do something useful....so please contact us via our contact form and other ways especially Facebook.
