ICYMI: HB7 Training Available Now On Demand!

The new HB7 law went into effect July 1st and has placed restrictions on how businesses and nonprofits can discuss topics like race, racism, and privilege in their organizations. This is having a chilling effect on diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts, so we want to make sure companies and organizations know how to have effective trainings while remaining in legal compliance. The training is now available on demand!

This training is $35 - don’t miss out!

The Intersection of Art & Race

904WARD is partnering with Moving the Margins, an Artist-in-Residence program that provides the exhibition space and an equitable perspective for artists to pursue collaborative, large-scale art installations. We invite you to come view the current exhibition, “Past, Present, Future,” inside of The Corner Gallery in celebration of the 200th anniversary of the founding of the city of Jacksonville. The Exhibit runs until November 2nd.

Through the mediums of photography, graphic design, drawing, and painting; artists Dustin Harewood, Malcolm Jackson, Toni Smailagic, and Jordan Walter, each seek to sell their unique points of view on what the city was, is, and can be! This modern installation includes updated remixes of historic Jacksonville photography, streetwear apparel paying homage to local businesses and institutions, and contemporary portraits of figures from different eras.
