Black Joy Archive Workshops
black joy archive v.iii invites Black individuals to convene for a two-day workshop to share, ideate and map ideologies in times of uncertainty. We have seen time and time again, that regardless of the terror / pain / contempt / unrest of our social environment, our joy lives on.

The first session will entail us collectively writing and creating  images that will be part of  v.iii of this project. In session two, each contributor will learn how to scan their makings from the previous session and print with the risograph machine. All writing and images created will then be incorporated into the final version of this publication, which will be released in the summer of 2025.
