Thank you to everyone who submitted work with honesty, intention, and vulnerability. Your pieces challenged us, moved us, and expanded the conversation in powerful ways. In the coming weeks, we’ll share selected artists and works from the exhibition. *WE SET OUR TERMS: A Black Erotic Praxis — Power • Consent • Liberation* extends beyond the walls, with workshops, performances, artist talks, and public programming exploring autonomy, intimacy, consent, and liberation. This work lives at the intersection of public art, health, and equity—centering power, care, pleasure, and self-definition. 🖤 Opening Reception May 15, 2026 🖤 Juneteenth Program June 19, 2026 Presented by Be Connected Durham & Beyond in partnership with Zeitgeist Gallery & Bar, with artistic lead Gemynii. More soon.

Sweat on the Floor was never just a party. It was rooted in purpose to raise funds and that we did!!!🤍✊🏽 I’m still basking in what that night created, the energy, the joy, the release. The way we all showed up and let go together. 🥵 An ode to those who came before us. A moment to lay the weight down. A rhythm to shake what your momma gave ya This poured directly into the mission 🤍 to preserve and renovate my grandparents’ home and to keep this home in the family. Thank you for showing up for me, for yourselves, and for something bigger than us. Celebrating my birthday this way meant everything. 🤍 I’ll be sharing a Google Doc in my bio this week with the projects still ahead. If you’re handy, have skills, or know someone who can lend a hand, please sign up so we can keep this work going. I love you all . Truly thank you for shaking a** with me & a beautiful BIG THANK YOUU to the dj’s that helped make this possible @damolaakintunde @groov_ytee , @professorxtheproducer , @sexondeckss , @dj_himbo @vsprtn__ & the co host + everything under the sun @esoderic3 🥵🤍✨ I WILL NEVER FORGET THIS NIGHT.
