We are very excited for two rare opportunities: First, the chance to see Dona Nelson’s paintings in person in Philadelphia (doesn’t happen very often!). Second, a chance to hear four Black Guggenheim photography fellows — Donald E. Camp, Ron Tarver, Wendel White and William Earle Williams — speak about their work in a virtual/in person event is likewise a rare opportunity.

Rounding out the News, there are a couple great opportunities for you, artists.
