Dekouvri dyaspora Afriken an
atravè je yo nan atis vizyèl li yo
The 2023 title of Ten North Group's Art of Transformation exhibitions and programs is designed to explore issues in African and African Diaspora contemporary art. It brings artists of African descent from around the world to Miami in a series of exhibitions, panel discussions, performances, and film projections.
The Art of Transformation is a dynamic process of community building through creative place-making, -- the art of re-imagining communities through the use of the arts and culture.
Ten North Group's approach to the arts is to be catalytic by serving as a place maker in rebuilding communities, creating business opportunities within the creative economy, attracting new audiences, and bringing greater awareness of African Diaspora Art to the broader community.
