“Don’t Be Scurred: Pathways to Liberation” Group show February 22nd - March 3rd 2019. In the show, “Don’t Be Scurred: Pathways to Liberation”, we reflect on intersectional political, communal, and spiritual issues facing people of the diaspora. “Don’t Be Scurred” is reflective of the past and present of African Diasporic history. “Pathways to Liberation” invokes Afro-futurist ideals to envision a better future for people of the African-Diaspora. We should fearlessly, reach towards possibility while celebrating our collective strength, creativity, and perseverance.

"GARDEN OF THOUGHTS" May 26th 2018 - Solo Art Show with Morgan N. Marshall paintings. Using vibrant colors and organic lines, African American artist Morgan Nicolette uses oil paintings to capture abstract ideas and emotions through black bodies. In this breadth of work she partners paintings and poems that she has created based upon first hand life experiences, or observed though her beloved friends and family. “Garden of Thoughts” is a body of work that encompasses organic elements like flowers, leafs, fish, and water to help take the viewers on a journey through deep thought. Topics touched on are about emotions, bodies, society, and how each and every one of us are consistently growing and intertwining together, like a garden.
