What a day of connection, healing, and joy! It was an honor to host the Yemaya Brunch, an intimate gathering celebrating the inner worlds, divinity, and shared humanity of Black women and femmes. Curated with love by Yodit Mesfin Johnson, this intimate event was a heartfelt love letter to the Black community—offering homage to the past while inspiring future possibilities through the lens of the powerful Silver Linings exhibition. ? We invite you to experience the exhibition for yourself. Step into this transformative space, and reflect on its stories. Let's celebrate the 25th anniversary of the Spelman Art Museum.
