OCTOBER CALENDAR OF EVENTS
01 - 31 | Blackfullness: Emancipation 2024 Art Show
BLACKFULLNESS is a word coined by the late Black feminist Audre Lorde to describe what she loved about her chosen home of St. Croix. Specifically, her beloved majority Black community that provided her with a sense of great belonging and purpose that transcended place. This year's exhibition spotlights the spirit of resistance that is at the core of Virgin Islanders' identity and that is etched into everything that makes Virgin Islands' cultural production so powerful. It calls attention to how Black protest and activism in our region have influenced international Black brilliance and liberation.
