Over the past year, Black artists in Summit County have come together to better promote their work and make arts connections. The resulting Akron Black Artist Guild now has about 100 members as well as support from the Knight Foundation and the advocacy organization ArtsNow.
From Crain's Akron Business: The John S. and James L. Knight Foundation said its selections put an emphasis 'on artists and art organizations using innovative methods to attract broader audiences, enhance in-person experiences, document creation or amplify reach to people who wouldn't otherwise have access to a variety of arts experiences.'
