Black Artists in the Spotlight: Currents of Creativity will amplify the voices of Black Artists, providing a platform to recognize their profound contributions to the global art scene. Through this dynamic exhibition, The Rye Arts Center encourages the community to engage with the rich tapestry of creativity, cultural significance, and innovation within the Black Artistic Experience.

In the words of Curator and Board Member Kicki Storm:

“I am thrilled to curate Black Artists in the Spotlight: Currents of Creativity. We have an incredible group of diverse artists representing up and coming generations from the region and beyond. I am honored to share their work with the community. They work in different mediums, such as oil, acrylic, watercolor, spray paint, collage, digital and mixed media assemblage creating their portraits, abstract art, collage and/or works with a social message. The art expresses the life and experience of the artists. Their work reflects their America. Art is about inspiring us. Enjoy the show. This exhibition is a testament to the diversity and depth of Black Artistic Expression, inviting everyone to join us in acknowledging and appreciating the contributions of Black Artists to the global art landscape."
