Event Description

About the Event

Join us for a night where image, reflection, and inspiration come together in a rich celebration of identity. Experience the opening of Tawny Chatmon: Sanctuaries of Truth, Dissolution of Lies with the artist herself. Chatmon’s work dismantles racist myths and uplifts Black cultural truths. Journey inward and channel your own story as you make a self-portrait book as an act of reflection, resistance, and personal expression. DJ MIM’s multi-genre beats will set a soulful, electric tone.

Two drink tickets are included with admission.

All members can purchase tickets, even if the event is sold out; members at the Explorer level and above receive two free tickets to each NMWA Nights event.

Tickets go on sale on October 1 at 10 am.
