We are excited to announce that Black Art Today!, LLC is now Black Art Today, Inc. Maryland Trade Name, The Black Art Today Foundation, a 501 (c)(3) Public Charity. The change is only in name and structure, as we remain committed to fulfill our mission to promote artists that depict the African Diaspora in the forms of visual arts, literature, and performing arts.
Our transition to a public charity will enhance our ability to provide additional services for artists and art organizations through scholarships and grants, funded through your donations, art sales, and merchandise sales. This reorganization will be mutually beneficial; as donors or customers, your purchases and donations are tax deductible and provide direct monetary support to our artists and the Foundation.
In the upcoming months we will start the rebranding process. We will start with the introduction of the Foundation’s Officers, a new logo, new website, social media platforms, and a new line of merchandise to reflect our new identity. We will also launch a membership option and fund-raising campaign. Finally, we will transition our commercial services to our original company, Clark & Macklin, LLC. During this transition we will continue to provide the same high-quality art, merchandise, and services.
We value and request your continued support during and at the completion of this transition. We firmly believe that as we grow and mature as an organization so does the art community as a whole. We will send periodic progress reports to keep you informed on key rebranding milestones and upcoming events.
Thank you again for your continued support.
Sincerely,
Alicia B. Clark, Chief Executive Officer (CEO)/President
Lisa A. Lumford Clark, Chief Operations Officer (COO)/Vice President
