Show UP for First Friday on The Block!
This is What Made Me, a memoir of personal essays about surviving trauma, challenging systems, and claiming healing by local author, advocate, and friend to many, Aisha Johnson Adams.
This Book Sharing & Signing will be our feature for November’s First Friday on The Block and will relaunch our series, Le Mot Noir, celebrating the achievements of local authors! Aisha Johnson Adams will read from her book, answer questions, and get us talking to one another while we get closer to ourSelves.
If you are interested in participating in the series, let us know. And most of all let’s show up for one another.
ABOUT FIRST FRIDAYS
5 – 7 pm The Black Creator Highlight @ Noir Collective AVL 39 S. Market Street
7 – 9 pm The Artist Network | The Workshop Lounge @ The Foundry Hotel or YMI Auditorium or somewhere else entirely (let’s see what’s out there)
Every month we gather to rejuvenate, reignite, and indulge in creative community. We gather to remember and honor those who have come before us and to set new paths for those who will follow.
Black Creator Highlight is a center stage for an artist, spoken word performer, musician, soap maker, fashion designer, or crafter of any medium.
Artist Network is a communal creative experience to collaborate, share ideas, methodologies on how we create, how we reset, and to just BE. Join us @The Workshop Lounge within the Foundry Hotel.
Both offerings are Drop-In events.
(Collaborations with other venues could shift our timing. Please check social media for details and updates.)
