What others have to say

I just read an article called 20 men. I loved it!! I just want to thank you for your brilliant work on humanizing African American men, especially in Chester County where we are literally the minority. Your display is refreshing and gives me hope. I would love to show this exhibit off to my old son so he can see positive reflection of himself through these men and your work.
