Gordon Parks: The Power of Photography exhibition was held in May of 2024 at the Albin Polesk Museum in Winter Park, FL.
I was invited to speak around community photography; it was important to include local African American photographers to be a part of the discussion and speak directly about their experiences as photographers and the impact of photography in Black communities as a way to reclaim our stories.
My goal as the moderator was to give space to emerging photographers and hear a unique perspective and real life experiences.

I was excited to moderate "Black Voices & Stories" during Florida's Children's Book Festival featuring recognized Authors such as Jerry Craft, Kelly Starling Lyons, Sherri Winston, Nicole D Collier and Vashti Harrison.
"Appreciated your expert moderation and kindness. Thanks for making the book festival so special." KS
