The Pérez Art Museum Miami (PAMM) Teen Arts Council (PTAC) Wiki Committee is a youth-led advocacy initiative developed in collaboration with PAMM's Wikimedia Initiatives. Through artist interviews, original research, and open knowledge platforms, teen participants expand public access to the voices and lived experiences of artists in PAMM's collection. The project empowers young people to advocate for more inclusive cultural narratives while contributing to publicly accessible resources that broaden representation in contemporary art.

Artist Chire “VantaBlack” Regans’ art practice exists at the intersection of social justice and storytelling. Her work responds to urgent societal concerns and functions as a critical platform to amplify the voices of community members who are often silenced. Over the past decade, Chire has focused primarily on community advocacy and depicting social narratives without distortion in various mediums. As a Saint Louis native, the birth of the Black Lives Matter movement triggered a sense of urgency in her art practice. Her work continues to evolve, allowing for broader social accessibility and creative scale. In South Florida, Chire continues to merge her artistic practice with community-led activism, emphasizing the art of storytelling as a means of engaging with communities with radical empathy and transparency.
