The Black Woman Is God

Help expand The Black Woman is God!

We are transforming the Bay Area art scene and the world, so we need your support! With your help, we look forward to bringing you beautiful gifts of art and community.

Our names are Karen Seneferu and Melorra Green. We are artists, activists, and change-makers. We love Black art and work to create spaces for Black women artists who are often marginalized in the art world.

Last year we had 2,000 people come out to the opening reception of The Black Woman Is God at SOMArts in San Francisco. So many performers, artists, healers, and stewards helped make this mammoth exhibition possible — providing a platform for 60 Black visual artists to contribute over 100 pieces of artwork and over 75 dancers, drummers, and performers to activate the exhibition at the opening reception.

Since then, SOMArts has created space for us to bring The Black Woman is God back in 2017 and the exhibition has gotten bigger. We are reaching out to you for financial support to show appreciation for those who continue to give without requesting to be paid. Let's show the artists, the communities and the world that The Black Woman is God is not only an exhibition but a movement that has the power to bring about healing and transformation.

This is what we have done so far and what we are asking you to support:

· Graphic artist Susan Santana is supporting a photo book documenting the exhibition, gifting $5K
· Dancers and performers compensated to activate the opening reception: $4k
· The Black Woman is God committee supplies, food, etc: $1k
· Artist honorariums and materials: $3k
· Rental space - to bring The Black Woman is God beyond the gallery: $2k
