DiasporART: Self-Actualization - New Brunswick Black Artist Alliance
Gallery on Queen celebrates Black History Month during the month of February, although this focus should remain all year round.
Gallery on Queen is proud to have an inaugural Art Exhibition in celebration of the Black History Month 2023 hosted by the New Brunswick Black Artists Alliance (NBBAA).
Black Art has existed since there have been Black settlers living here on the unceded territory of the Wolastoqiyik and Mi’kmaq First Nations/New Brunswick. Art offers the potential to travel, migrate and transcend, along with the complex and multifaceted histories of the people on this land.
Black History Month should not be just for the month of February, but should be celebrated and given space all year round.
This exhibition celebrates the Black identity in New Brunswick. The New Brunswick Black Artists Alliance (NBBAA) is a non-profit organization that works tirelessly to give voice to those forgotten NB Black Artists and to nurture, promote and protect all future Black Artists.
