// The Afro+Projection Lab presents: Stewarding Cinematic Spaces of Care
The Afro+Projection Lab presents Stewarding Cinematic Spaces of Care. These videos engage with questions that arise at the convergence of archival practices, gestures of care, and the moving image. Stewarding Cinematic Spaces of Care uses Gil Z. Hochberg’s, archival imagination as a thematic link between the five films in the program. Each filmmaker not only engages with the archive(s), but reimagines its function for alternative futures. Films will be followed by a Q + A.
// Filmmakers:
Jasmine Best - A Wilmington Doll
Tatiana Garnett - These Hands Lay Open
Cydnii Wilde Harris - Cotton
Amir George - Optimum Continuum
Vonnie Quest - Remnants of A Room

Finally getting around to finishing off my beaded sculpture, inspired to do something different with the lampwork beads from @patricialarsenartglass. Just need to finish off the base, maybe some paint and some beaded beads.

We are 30% of the way towards our goal of having $5000 available in our Studio Relief Fund!
Here’s a message from @caitlin_cary about how a studio at Artspace helped her grow as an artist.
Here’s how you can help:
To help artists now and in the future, Artspace has created the Studio Fund. The purpose of this fund is to help our studio artists cover their studio rent during times of financial strain.
Access to studio space can be transformative to an artist’s practice and career. At Artspace, our open studio environment creates opportunities for artists to learn directly from other artists, engage with the public, interact with national and regional exhibiting and residency artists, and make lasting friendships that challenge and inspire their practice.
To support artists in their careers, Artspace offers studio space at below market rates and covers the costs of utilities including water, electric, internet, and a building-wide security system.
Your tax deductible donation to the Studio Fund will help build a safety net for artists facing financial hardships. Donations made to the fund will be available to artists on a first come first served basis and studio artists may access relief funds twice per calendar year.
Your generous donation can be made at https://artspace.z2systems.com/donation.jsp?campaign=148&
