Black Boy Art Show
Black Boy Art Show is more than an exhibition—it’s a national celebration of Black male brilliance in visual art. Founded in 2020 by visionary curator Joshua Love, BBAS was born from a desire to elevate and honor the talents of Black male artists across the United States. Since its inception, the show has become the largest global celebration of Black male artists, showcasing the work of over 1,000 creatives and connecting with nearly 20,000 attendees across more than 12 U.S. cities.
