What we’re about
Black Alphabet’s mission is to promote social equity awareness and education in all aspects of life for the Black LGBT+ community through the use of media and the arts.
Our vision is to ensure equal access to resources which will help overcome socio-economic disparities which uniquely or disproportionately impact the black LGBT+ community.

Art therapy is all about using colors, textures, and imagination to explore feelings in a playful, nonjudgmental way. You don’t need to be an artist—just curious! Whether it’s painting out your stress, sculpting your dreams, or doodling your way through big emotions, art therapy helps you see your inner world in new shapes and colors. Think of it as a creative playground for your mind and heart—where every brushstroke, scribble, or collage is a step toward self-discovery and healing.
