​​

Welcome to our 8th Annual Emancipation Art Exhibition, a vibrant celebration of Black art, culture, and community. This year, we’re proud to feature the work of 26 talented artists whose stories and perspectives reflect the richness and resilience of the African diaspora.

 

Presented in collaboration with the Helson Gallery, and with heartfelt thanks to the Town of Halton Hills for its ongoing support, this partnership continues to create meaningful space for Black artists to be seen, valued, and heard.

 

It’s a collaboration that reflects our shared commitment to community, roots, and culture — and it’s making a real difference.

​

Each piece in this exhibit invites you to pause, reflect, and connect. I hope you leave inspired, moved, and more deeply connected to the stories that shape and strengthen us.
