A Reflective Guide: 12 Artists on Inclusive Practice in Youth Education

Highlighting 12 local artists who integrate teaching into their art practice, this free publication will serve as a document, collection, and resource distributed at arts and education centers across Miami-Dade County. Focusing on social justice and healing, each teaching artist’s spread will include images, commentary, and an original art lesson.

Going Home

A rotating group of pallbearers will carry a lone Dade County pine beam (6”x6”x16')--salvaged from a home built in 1925 and demolished in 2017--back into the heart of Long Pine Key, where it will be laid among the pines in a modest ceremony preceded by a Land Acknowledgement.

Ms. Mary’s House | The Carol City Museum

“Ain’t Nothing but Space and Opportunity.” Ms. Mary’s House | The Carol City Museum is a call to action against the unyielding extirpation of Black historic sites, dwellings, and haunts. By turning her grandmother’s home, which was passed on to her, into a space for house parties, pop-up shops, jazz sessions, writing workshops, and more, the artist preserves the lived history of her community.

Digital Memorial Archive

Beginning with five portraits of victims of violence in Miami-Dade County and beyond, this memorial series has grown to include over 200 works. To collect these stories in one accessible space, the artist will build a Digital Memorial Archive composed of portraits, items families have given her, collected writings, personal accounts, and other materials.
