Join us on Thursday, May 4 in the Friendship store classroom for a very special art opening celebrating the work of activist and artist KingDemetrius Pendleton. As we prepare to recognize the three year anniversary of George Floyd’s death, we honor the activists, artists, and journalists who continue fighting for justice, raising awareness, and promoting healing in our communities.

This event will be an opportunity to meet King and hear from him directly about his work and inspiration. Enjoy live music from Charmin Michelle. Light refreshments will be provided.

KingDemetrius Pendleton was not only the first journalist on site the day George Floyd was murdered, he also spent countless hours live-streaming the protests, press conferences, uprising, cleanup, and reinvigorated grassroots activism that followed.

Recently, he reached out to Seward Co-op as a community partner to help showcase his work in an effort to amplify Black voices and promote community healing. Beginning in May, his work will be on sale at the Seward Co-op Friendship store.

This event is open to all – RSVP is not required, but if you register via the Eventbrite link below, we will send you a reminder email before the event.
