ABOUT GUEST PRESENTERS EMANUEL & SHARON BROWN:

Emanuel (Mack) and Sharon Brown have been sharing their collection of African American literature, art, and historical objects with the community for over 10 years, but in 2018 they gave the collection an official home in the AFrican AMErican History and Literature Gallery at 725 Broadway in Benton Harbor. Their commitment to art and culture as both a catalyst for change and community unifier has led to multiple arts-based projects in both Benton Harbor and St. Joseph.


ABOUT THE MEMBERS’ AWARD

New this year, the Members’ Award is a special juried prize awarded to one outstanding Member Artist selected by our community presenters. The winner will receive resources to benefit their art career up to $500 value. All participating artists who are also Krasl Art Center members at the time of the exhibition are eligible to participate.


ABOUT THE ANNUAL MEETING

Krasl Art Center’s annual meeting is free and open to the public. The brief convening of KAC’s membership is also an opportunity to hear from arts and culture leaders about topics related to the organization’s mission. New board officers are announced and plans for the year ahead are shared that further the organization’s mission.
