Lois Mailou Jones
Lois Mailou Jones was an American Artist in the 20th century, who created various art-pieces. I discuss a few of her pieces and discuss their connections to the Harlem Renaissance.

A showcase of talent from all across the city, art one would never imagine seeing in any other place than New York City.
How Sculptures Are Worth A Thousand Words
Amid the Harlem Renaissance, Black artists like Augusta Savage were at the forefront of promoting change, as their art was a platform that empowered the Black community.

“Connections” explores the idea that people can transcend their known experiences through learning about the expressions of artists vastly different from themselves.
