An immersive arts experience, Vision & Sound broadens the understanding and appreciation of African American art and music for multigenerational and multicultural audiences. The educational event, which features an exhibition, lectures, artist demonstrations, musical performances and a symposium, builds supportive relationships to encourage cultural equity throughout Arizona and beyond, recognizing that professional American artists of African descent are too often overlooked.

“We are thrilled to present this wide-reaching education experience that celebrates Black artists in the visual and performing arts,” says Julie Richard, CEO of Sedona Arts Center. “The exhibition and related programming amplify BIPOC voices and provide an opportunity for expansive thinking about Black artists and their achievements.”
The Vision & Sound exhibition showcases artworks by Patricia Bohannon, Dorrell Bradford, Jacqueline Chanda, Amber Doe, Debra Edgerton, Jerome Fleming, Isse Maloi, Chip Thomas and George Welch. The paintings, photography, sculptures, fiber and mixed-media pieces push the boundaries of creative expression—exploring identity, agency, beauty, shared histories and cultural experiences. While the artists’ backgrounds and approaches vary, their artworks illuminate the powerful connections that art makes possible between individuals and communities.
