Many thanks to @alisoncroney @littleuprisings @eerees.iris @eliotschoolcraft @innosantonagara for holding space for uncomfortable much needed conversations about race last night! How to support young people and all people as we push the needle forward to a more racially just world. It’s going to take a little bit of us, a lot of love, unpacking and the young people right now to create the world we really want to see. I am honored that I was able to be in conversation with such amazing thought leaders and community members. The Eliot School Salon Series: “Talking to Kids About Race, Justice, and Their Power Using Art & Art-Making” was amazing! Thank you for joining me on this journey, many thanks to all my followers and those that support #zntarts sending lots of love and light! My smile says it all! #artseducation #artseducator #artist #mompreneur #artseducationconsultant #bostoncreative PS...

Just me and my hearts... these are very personal to me. Broken-heartened can show up in many ways that can go unnoticed by the people that are close to us. I use art as away to elevate my life, my way of being and the lives of others. What is your antidepressant? All of us at some point and time may experience lost, disappointment and or grief. If you go through any of those things you will surely experience the highs of life too. The joy, the wonder, and the awe. Embrace life’s ups and downs and know that change is inevitable. It’s up to you as to how you see that change. You are the maker and the owner of your said environment. Be the catalyst of change and never be afraid to step into your greatness! ❤️ #zntarts #zahirahnurtrutharts #daartistznt #mother #artist #educator #artistlife #bostoncreative #artseducator #healingvibrations #positivethinking #depressionhelp #teamafro #naturallyshesdope (at Boston, Massachusetts) https://www.instagram.com/p/BwnG_zlnV7O/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=19pxywx1zn0nl

This weekend I joined the @lynnmuseum @lynnartsbuilding for Final FRIDAYYYsss it was so much fun making new connection and being in conversation about some of the things that impact young people in the Lynn community. I am currently working on an installation that will be installed this month I can’t wait to share more details. A collaborative project inspired by the thoughts and lived experiences by several youth through out the Lynn community. The “Say Their Name” Project is brought to life by @buildingaudacity connecting youth with a series of artist and other connections to bring public art that speaks to social justice and uplifting their voices. Here are a few examples of some of representations of the current project through craft and art making. #liveandletart #socialjusticeeducation #socialjusticeart #artseducator #artseducationconsultant #muralartist #publicart #installationart #mosaicart #zntarts #communityengagement (at Lynn Museum/LynnArts) https://www.instagram.com/p/CSCKCRKHS8M/?utm_medium=tumblr
