Event Description

Curative Collective Conversation: WANDA

In this series, join us for in-depth interviews with the Curative Collective, a group of Women, Arts, and Social Change partners working at the intersection of food, art, and social change. From advocacy and social justice to healing and restorative self-care, this diverse collective serves communities throughout the Baltimore–Washington metropolitan area. The Curative Collective is also working on NMWA’s exhibition, RECLAMATION: Recipes, Remedies, and Rituals to make sure that the exhibition incorporates local communities and their perspectives.

This week, we are joined by WANDA, a Black women-led social justice 501c3 nonprofit organization based in the District of Columbia. Launched in 2016, WANDA is on a mission to grow a new crop of food sheroes from farm to health across the African Diaspora through education, advocacy and innovation. They transform lives and families through #FoodForTheCulture.

This event will be livestreamed on NMWA’s Facebook page and at nmwa.org/livestream.

Women, Arts, and Social Change is a public programs initiative that highlights the power of women and the arts as catalysts for change.
