2024 Camille Compo Lecture: glyneisha 

November 14, 5–7pm 

In partnership with EIU’s Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies program, the Tarble welcomes exhibiting artist glyneisha as the 2024 Camille Compo Lecture Series guest speaker.  

glyneisha is a poly-disciplinary artist, educator, and community caretaker archiving the inherent healing nature of matrilineal Blackness through processes of ethical collaboration informed by Black feminist scholarship. She organizes workshops, spaces for communal reflection, produces publications, living archives, installation and exhibition work examining the public and private experiential nature of the Black Interior as a source of refuge, healing, and imagination. glyneisha is co-founder of Strange Fruit Femmes, a Black-and-Brown-femme-led collective that provides free programming for youth and adults centering transformative healing through the arts.  

This event will be free at the Tarble Arts Center in Charleston, Illinois with refreshments served. For more information, check out the Tarble's website at https://www.eiu.edu/tarble/camillecompo24.php.
