"Artists should be masters of their craft. The question is, "Can you tell me about your work?" Dr. Ricco Wright
During this episode Jewell Sparks (BAAR Art Journey / UNITED17 Ventures / Startup42 Media) sits down with Dr. Ricco Wright of Black Wall Street Gallery to discuss how the gallery came about. Throughout their conversation, they discuss generational wealth, artistic star power, community building and the utilization of art, music, and education to help those who are oppressed to overcome societal injustices. They discuss criteria which should be taken into account for those who want to participate in the upcoming BAAR ART Journey & Residency and more. Black Wall Street Gallery utilises the arts and education to bring people together in conciliatory discussions, events and activities that create more opportunities for dialogue and ultimately greater cultural, experiential understanding.
