Fulton Art Fair was established in 1958 as a collective of artists of African and African American descent, promoting their work in New York City and New York State; although most of its members are local Brooklyn artists. In this exhibition the multigenerational group of emerging and established artists will continue to tell audio and visual histories through art.
