Black Miami-Dade presents Give Them Their Flowers: An Exhibit of Black LGBTQ+ Miami History. Join us for the opening reception Saturday, March 18, 2023 . This is the first time in Miami's history that there is an exhibit solely dedicated to exploring the history of Black queer life in the 3-0-5. This exhibit pays homage to Miami’s underexplored Black queer history by merging historical research, archival imagery, artifacts, oral histories, video and portraits of Black LGBTQ+ Miamians over the age of 40. Co-curated by Black Miami-Dade founder Nadege Green and curator Marie Vickles, “Give Them Their Flowers” features works by artists Vanessa Charlot, Woosler Delisfort, Kendrick Daye, and Loni Johnson. Please join us for the opening reception. This exhibit is made possible with the generous support of Maven Leadership Collective and University of Miami's Center for Global Black Studies. www.blackmiamidade.com/givethemtheirflowers
