Been gilding my lil’ heart out for installation @tinflats tomorrow for @projectartusa ‘s Summer BBQ on July 28th, 2-5PM. This is one of the works that will ultimately be installed at @wirvinglapl memorializing the life and service of Jessie Mae Brown Beavers and honoring the institutions she served, of which there are at least 10. She was a powerhouse in the African American community of Los Angeles and I admire her style of life more and more as I go through archives at @ucla_libraryspecialcollections and @usclibraries , connect with her descendants and community, and learn about how much good is being done out there for all of us in this City of Angels. #InAwe of #JessieMaeBeavers
