Founded in Atlanta in 2019 by curator Joshua Love, the show began as a response to the lack of representation for Black women in the arts. Since then, it’s grown into a national platform, touring over 25 cities and connecting more than 5,000 artists to 72,000+ attendees. In 2020, the vision expanded with the launch of Black Boy Art Show, a complementary exhibition uplifting the work of Black men artists across the country.
Together, these two shows have built an ecosystem for creative expression and economic opportunity—generating over $10 million in revenue for artists to date. Beyond the numbers, they’ve created a space where Black artists are seen, celebrated, and supported on their own terms.
