Through the Lens

@ Experimental Station

6100 S Blackstone Ave Chicago, IL 60637

Opening Friday, March 29th, from 6PM - 8PM

From newspaper covers to Instagram snapshots, images have the potential to shape and transform narratives. Join us for a discussion led by artist Tonika Johnson on the potential of Black women’s self-portraiture to reclaim narratives of Black life. Bring objects or clothes with significance to you to photograph in a self-portraiture and storytelling workshop.

Childcare will be available!
