Honored with Art
ACH designed the Kaufmann Center as the hub for creativity and can host Artist and exhibits surrounded by historical and meaningful works of art!
​
Hill District resident James “Peewee” White was the barber of the late Amon C. Harris and is a professional artist. Peewee made a commitment to the Founder Tyian Battle, that once she completed renovation on the Kaufmann Center, he would design an art mural in memory of Amon.
​
On July 21, 2021, James Peewee White unveiled his work with 75 children enrolled in the 2021 Creative Camp of ACH Clear Pathways. Which is now a talking piece when one visits the administrative floor of the Kaufmann Center.

Perspectives: An Afro American Visual Exhibit
ACH Clear Pathways, in association with Mr. Roger Smith and the Smith Family Fund, created “Perspectives” which is a traveling art exhibit relative to African American History. This exhibit provides s brief narrative and associated images on eight African American historical topics. This exhibit includes positive topics such as Amanda Gorman’s Inaugural Day speech. In addition, topics of a disturbing nature such as “Strange Fruit” and Black Wall Street are included. This exhibit will illuminate and engender an interest in these and other topics related to African-American history.
​
A unique feature of this exhibit is its portability. The eight framed prints and portable easels may be transported in 4 art portfolio tote bags. “Perspectives” is an exhibit to be shared with the community throughout the year.

Organizations, schools, and businesses can purchase this exhibit for a nominal cost. Inquiries can be made to admin@achcp.org
