Last week to see the exhibit Clothes Story @sdmesacollege_gallery, envisioned and curated by Atlanta based designer Kenneth Green. This exhibition celebrates the lives and contributions of African American women by carefully replicating over thirty garments and fashion accessories that represent what women wore in historical periods ranging from 1890 to 1963. Every dress, coat or cloak in Clothes Story has a unique story to tell, whether revealing details about the maker, providing information about the historical context or teaching us about the person who wore it. Through fashion, the narratives shared in this exhibition come alive. The engaging display takes the viewer on a journey through time, inviting them to experience women’s lives at home and in their communities and capturing historical moments that showcase the African American female experience and acknowledge their resilience, strength, bravery, courage, and unapologetic spirit for change. The exhibition is presented in collaboration with the San Diego African American Museum of Fine Art.

Join us for the closing reception on Wednesday, October 15, 2025, 4 – 7 PM. During the closing reception poet @gerdagovine will recite verses about the clothing on display. There will also be a dance performance by the San Diego Mesa College Dance Ensemble led by Professor Donna Flournoy. @sdmesacollegedance

We will also celebrate and open until 7 pm, the "Sacred Chichis" exhibit with @gloriamuriel and @bbadillos

Don't miss your chance to see these two exhibitions! I'll be seeing you. 💗
