E-MERGE

Welcome to E-Merge!! 🧩🕑💻 E-Merge: Artistic Intersections of the Black Midwest is an in-person event that fosters community building, knowledge sharing, and curation. The FREE, inaugural event hosted by WITH(IN).DIGITAL serves as a gathering space, community activation, and a portal celebrating Black Midwestern creativity and ingenuity. The goal of E-Merge is to emphasize the Black Midwest and cultivate regional pride for Black artists from or currently based in Cuyahoga County. Join us for an intergenerational artist dialogue between two Cleveland photographers, a live DJ, a curated zine, an art exhibition featuring works by Cleveland born or based Black artists, and the opportunity to contribute to an oral history archive. E-Merge: Artistic Intersections of the Black Midwest is supported by The Satellite Fund, administered by SPACES and funded by The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts Regional Regranting Program.
