Shani Peters, Joseph Cuillier, The Black School, New York, NY

The Black School (TBS) is an experimental art school teaching Black/PoC students and allies to become agents of change through art workshops on radical Black politics and public interventions that address local community needs. TBS was founded by Joseph Cuillier III and Shani Peters in 2016. We are socially engaged artists, designers, and educators working at the intersections of K-12/university teaching, art, design, and activism. In four years we have served 400+ students, facilitated 100+ workshops and classes, produced three Black Love Fests, collaborated with more than 40 professional artists, trained and employed 16 design apprentices, and partnered with 50+ organizations.
