Studio Visit with Faith Ringgold
Visit the Englewood, New Jersey studio of Faith Ringgold, the Harlem-born artist best known for her story quilts, which combine painting, fabric and handwritten text. Starting with bold political paintings in the 1960s that addressed race and civil rights, she later turned to quilting, a tradition passed down in her family, to tell stories of Black life and women's experience. Her quilt Tar Beach also became an award-winning children's book. See her quilts, paintings and works in progress, and hear about her process. Small group, casual conversation.

Imani Okafor
I'm a sculptor exploring the body, its representations, and the ambiguities of gender. My work draws on feminist and queer discourse to create forms that hold fragility and vulnerability alongside poetic force and active agency.
