About this Event

In 2015 we started Gumbo to bring people together and bridge gaps across the diaspora. This May we keep building with our first exhibition as part of Contact Photo Festival featuring 10 artists and a decade of archival material reimagined as installation art. For opening night we'll be screening a new Gumbo collage film in collaboration with Ramon Charles and Randell Adjei. A pop-up kiosk will carry limited Gumbo merch and a curated spread of nostalgic treats
This show is for our tribe. The people inside the Gumbo discotek. The DJs and dancers who graced our stages. The photographers who memorialized these special moments. The creative minds we’ve built with. And for the City. Come as you are.
