Description

FEBRUARY 25TH 4PM @ 642 New England Ave, Winter Park, FL 32789 We'll be partnering with Black Lunch Table and Hannibal Square Heritage Center to document Central Florida artists ! Come through for a free portrait done by the Black Shell Team! The Black Lunch Table (BLT) is a United States-based oral-history archiving project founded in 2005, focused on the lives and work of Black artists. Its work includes oral archiving, salons, peer teaching workshops, meetups, and Wikipedia edit-a-thons. The BLT brings people together to engage in dialogues about the writing, recording, and promoting inclusive art history. As part of Black Lunch Table's initiative to address Wikipedia's racial and gender bias, this photobooth was created to bridge that gap. For this popup photobooth, we will be having it in Historic Hannibal Square and the Heritage Center. The mission of The Hannibal Square Heritage Center is to pay tribute to the past, present and future contributions of Winter Park's African-American community. Through its innovative programming in the arts and humanities, the Heritage Center is a neighborhood focal point, archive, and home to the expanding exhibition, The Heritage Collection: Photographs and Oral Histories of West Winter Park. Through exhibitions and diverse educational programs, it will inspire all Central Floridians and visitors to Winter Park to become more aware of, respect, explore and participate in their own community's history and heritage. Small refreshments will be provided. Participants will be asked to complete a model release form before shoot. Dress Code: Whatever feels most comfortable for you!
