Community Arts United

Greetings Facebook Friends,
Happy Saturday. Our team is still working diligently on the . We are so excited and grateful about the love and support we have gotten over the past few months. Our indiegogo campaign was a great success, however, we are still fundraising in order to bring you the world class exhibition that both Mr. Neals and the world deserves.
On February 28, 2015 we will mount an art auction at Gallery 113 in the Crown Heights Youth Collective in Brooklyn, NY. Our team would like as many artists as we know to DONATE an ORIGINAL piece of art to this historic event. Our plan is to begin the auction on-line at least two weeks earlier so that our friends around the world will have access to the work in order to start the bidding prior to the gallery exhibition.
If you are interested in participating, please email me at [email protected] with your name and phone number and an image of the work, immediately. We will get back to you with further details within 24 hours. I am posting an image of one of my donations to the auction. It is one of my lino-cuts that Mr. Neals and I hand pulled together.
Thank all of you again for your continued support!!! I look forward to hearing from you or friends of yours. Yes, you can refer an artist friend if you would like.
Peace,
Dr. Myrah

Happy Birthday Master Otto Neals!!!
When I teach Art History, in particular the Benin Punitive Expedition, I always teach about the Lost Wax Process that was developed first in ancient Africa.
What a pleasure it was to see the process done first hand when I was invited to visit the foundry with Mr. Neals. Pictured is the Master working on a bronze sculpture of Malcolm X that had just been fired. Yes, it will be in the . The oxidization process is taking place right before my eyes.
I am honored to walk this journey with you Mr. Neals!

Happy Monday Everyone! New York City schools begin their Spring Break today. Please help all of the family heads and/or caretakers find something to do with the children by posting creative ideas.

I went to see the WITNESS exhibition at the Brooklyn Museum of Art. It is a perfect outing for children because in addition to looking at it through the eyes of the Civil Rights Movement, one can look at it in so many other ways including the Artists, size of the images, the different mediums, the relationship between the music playing and the art, the video etc..... There is a timeline once leaving the exhibition area that takes you through the Civil Rights Movement.

Make the best if your week and have some fun!

A little positivity for your day! , , ,
