Laura Pendleton-Miller | Blue Lotus Artists' Collective (BLAC)


Listen Later

Laura Pendleton-Miller tells how a group of like-minded community members who wanted to give black artists more visibility created the Blue Lotus Artists' Collective (BLAC). Although this downtown Tucson, Arizona, gallery dedicated to providing emerging and established black artists a space to show their artwork and share their stories is in its infancy, it has already made a monumental impact in the community and for black artists near and far.
