A black hole is so dense light cannot escape from it. A black hole gives shape to everything around it. A black hole is a dead star. A black hole curves space/time. Time ends in a black hole. A black hole is a portal to futures we cannot imagine. Black (W)hole: A Black Feminist Art Happening is an organic convergence of Black feminist energy, aesthetics, memory, and practice in the San Francisco Bay Area.

This convergence brings together a powerful constellation of Black feminist artists, writers, thinkers, and cultural workers whose work is concerned with questions of black futurity, black femme embodiment and subjectivity, history and the archive, Black feminist epistemologies, the Earth, the sacred, and the work of sustaining ancestral memory.
