How Do We Move Forward?

Presented and curated by ATB Fine Art Group, Inc.

October 16 – December 12

Watch the special virtual preview event from Friday, October 19 on our YouTube Channel 

In response to the recent series of events that spurred local, national, and global response, a group of Palm Beach County Black artists have stepped up to engage the community through art. Serving as both communicators and problem-solvers, 10 visual and spoken word artists will provide content regarding four centuries of turmoil and social and civil injustice. Since the revolution has already been televised, these artists will contribute to continuing conversations and help build solutions through art.

To purchase any of the works featured below, please contact Artist Services Coordinator Jessica Ransom at jransom@palmbeachculture.com or (561) 472-3336.
