SUMMARY:Heir of Becoming by Sir'ra - Gallery Closing Reception
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, August 28 | 5:00 – 7:00 PM\nThe King Arts Complex – [Elijah Pierce Gallery]\nJoin us for a special closing reception celebrating the powerful exhibition “Heir of Becoming” by Sir’ra. Enjoy light refreshments\, meet the artist\, and connect with fellow art lovers as we reflect on the impact of this creative journey. \nFree and open to the public. We hope to see you there! \nArtist Statement: Arris’ J. Cohen (Sir’ra)\nAs an emerging artist deeply rooted in the traditions of Diasporic realism and Afrofuturism\, my acrylic paintings and murals serve as a canvas where culture\, love\, and the sensory interplay of color and sound converge. I draw from a redemptive spirit that mirrors my journey and the broader narrative of the African diaspora\, aiming to bridge the past with visionary futures. \nIn my work\, I strive to transcend the conventional boundaries of time and space\, blending the historical with the speculative. Each stroke is a testament to resilience and the transformative power of art. My palette is vibrant and expressive\, echoing the rich and diverse tones of the diaspora while invoking the rhythmic beats that have sustained our communities across continents and eras. \nThe themes of my paintings are as layered as the identities I explore. They are imbued with a profound respect for our ancestors and a hopeful gaze towards the possibilities of tomorrow. Through my art\, I invite viewers to experience a fusion of reality and possibility\, encouraging a reﬂective journey into the depths of what it means to be connected by a shared heritage\, yet diversiﬁed by our unique stories. \nAs I continue to evolve as an artist\, my goal remains steadfast: to create art that not only reﬂects the soul of a culture but also ignites conversations and inspires change. In each piece\, I seek to capture the essence of Afrofuturism—not just as a genre but as a movement\, a form of cultural expression that aﬃrms our place in both history and the inﬁnite landscapes of the future.

SUMMARY:African Parish House Quilters - Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:The African Parish House Quilters was founded by the late Barbara Holt Payne and Deborah E. (Mullens) Pinckney under the tutelage of the late Wyrelene Mays. This group had its first meeting at the African Parish House\, 189 N. 20th Street\, on May 17\, 1997\, with subsequent meeting held on the 3rd Saturday of the month. The group is the result of the union of two visions. Barbara was inspired by the work of Carolyn Mazloomi and her Women of Color Quilters Network and wanted to start a group in Columbus. Deborah wanted to use her interest in quilting as a means of giving back to the community\, as part of the outreach of the now defunct Hebron Baptist Church\, a house church which met in the African Parish House. This church was under the leadership of Pastor William¬ Amanze M. Pinckney. \nIn February 1997 Mrs. Payne and Mrs. Mays held a quilting demonstration at the MLK branch of the library at 1600 E. Long Street introducing participants to yo-yo quilting. Deborah attended this demo and had the opportunity to share with them her desire to preserve the art of quilting relative to the historical significance in the African American community. Consequently\, Barbara and Deborah came together to start the African Parish House Quilters. The name came about as a result of the meeting where those in attendance voted to have this group name\, since this is where meetings were being held. The African Parish House got its name\, because it was the former parsonage for pastors of the Mt. Vernon A.M.E. Church.
