Join Mehari Sequar Gallery for the opening reception of our fall exhibition, starring mixed media artist Gherdai Hassell

Thank you to 1-54 Art Fair for giving us our first opportunity to exhibit at a major art fair. Last week was filled with community, creatives, and endless inspiration for the upcoming year. Thank you to all of our booth visitors and our new gallery friends! To the amazing DC based artists we featured, Jamilla Okubo and Werllayne Nunes , it is always a pleasure working with you both!

The Cultural Canvas

Created by our Summer 2022 Harvard Alumni for Black Advancement interns Jordan Taylor (Spelman ‘22) and Alexis Logan (Harvard ‘23), ‘The Cultural Canvas’ is the official Mehari Sequar Gallery arts & culture blog that runs exclusively in the summer. The Cultural Canvas aims to create space for the analysis of cultural phenomena and the recognition artists whose work(s) contribute to the preservation of beauty and personhood within Black culture.
