Education & Community Work
Media & Literacy Curriculum
A media literacy curriculum developed and written for PhotoWings, following a workshop with photographer Wendy Ewald, Kate Fowler and Jenkins Middle & High Schoolers in Eastern Kentucky.
Tactics of Collaboration: A Participatory Playbook
Tactics of Collaboration: A Participatory Playbook is a project that seeks to reveal the unseen processes of engagement inherent in collaboration practice. As corporations co-opt the notion of collaboration for their guides on workplace etiquette, and photographers identify the act of making a portrait as a collaborative exchange between author and subject, it becomes harder to envision the true complexity of making work alongside a community.
This traveling exhibition and project was created in collaboration with artist Mark Strandquist during my time with Magnum Foundation’s Photography Expanded initiative.
Community Printmaking; Studio Two Three
Community advocacy & print work in collaboration with Studio Two Three, feminist community print shop in Richmond, Virginia. At our Community Print Days, we pop up at various locations throughout the city and offer free printed t-shirts, prints and banners to support the movement to Defend Black Lives. We share the next print days on our Instagram - and the designs change based upon our partner organizations and movements. The prints are always free; bring a light-colored shirt, fabric or paper and some to share with a BIPOC.
Southern Community Cultural Alliance (SCCA)
I am a co-founder of the Southern Community Cultural Alliance, a coalition of, by and for Southern arts and cultural organizations and workers.
We began convening in the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic to address the immediate needs of our grassroots organizations and have now grown to approximately 85 member organizations.
Join our coalition efforts!
Doc’s Addition
A partnership with local documentary production company Fourthline Films to launch Doc’s Addition, a Richmond-based documentary program at Studio Two Three. Doc’s Addition is an effort to allow documentarians to present their work and to discuss it with a live audience, affirming the notion of filmmaking as a collective rather than corporate endeavor.
