What do we do?
That Art Party is a creative community where mindfulness, community, and artistic expression meet. We specialize in curating events and experiences that transform BIPOC mental health through shared creativity, introspection, and joy. Our mission is to provide spaces that encourage well-being, foster deep connections, and celebrate the harness our innate creative power.
-
In a world where every BIPOC adult engages in a creative self-care ritual that connects us to our innate creative power, we will begin to create our most liberated realities.
-
Love: Drawing from bell hooks' insights in All About Love, we cultivate a culture rooted in radical compassion, mutual respect, and care. Love is a foundation in our relationships and interactions, where we support and celebrate one another in our unique journeys.
Radical Imagination: Inspired by the principles of Afrofuturism, we envision a future where creativity knows no bounds. We see imagination as a powerful tool for transformation, allowing us to reimagine, rebuild, and reconnect with our true potential.
Rest: Following Tricia Hersey’s Nap Ministry, we honor rest as an act of liberation and self-preservation. Resting is essential to our work; it provides space for reflection, balance, and deeper connection with our intuition and well-being.
