Cultuvue is selected  4th Quarter of 2024 

Members gathered for the 4th quarter meeting and celebrated 7 Years, another milestone in the incredible journey of VCWWC. 

Members had the honor of hearing from three outstanding community programs:

Barberville Pioneer Settlement for the Creative Arts, presented by Christen Gandy
SMA Healthcare Foundation, represented by Cynthia Fite
Cultuvue, presented by Latoya Carey

These organizations are shining examples of the incredible work being done in our community. Each presentation left us with a deeper appreciation for their missions and impact.

This quarter, our members selected Cultuvue as the recipient of our collective contribution. In addition, thanks to our Community Partner Impact Fund, both SMA Healthcare Foundation and Barberville Pioneer Settlement will receive $1,000 grants to support their important initiatives.

Cultuvue, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, celebrates Black culture through dynamic photography exhibitions. Over the past four years, Kenneth Grant Inspirations has curated over 350 portraits and art pieces, blending photography, interactive displays, and education. These exhibitions challenge negative stereotypes of Black Americans by presenting positive imagery and stories that foster understanding and promote visual literacy—all offered free to the public.
