Growing up between the East Coast and the Middle East\, Kia was immersed in diverse cultural and devotional practices from an early age. She graduated from The New School with a double major in Photography and Culture & Media\, where she first encountered Hatha Yoga through her first teacher\, Sri Dharma Mittra. This exposure sparked her passion for the mind-body connection and the teachings of the eight-limbed Ashtanga yoga system. \n \n\nRSVP HERE\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n \n Add to calendar \n\n\n\n \n Google Calendar \n \n\n \n iCalendar \n \n\n \n Outlook 365 \n \n\n \n Outlook Live URL:https://parentguidenews.com/event/session-4/ CATEGORIES:Local History ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://parentguidenews.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/session-4-graphic-xue9iBtmp_.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20250322T140000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20250322T210000 DTSTAMP:20250322T091005Z CREATED:20250322T091005Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250322T091005Z UID:10026508-1742652000-1742677200@parentguidenews.com SUMMARY:Through Fabric & Frame: Faith Ringgold\, Lorraine O’Grady\, and the Black Feminist Gaze DESCRIPTION:@ \n \n \n\n\nThrough Fabric & Frame is the second installment in our Women’s History Month series\, Legacy is a Living Force.

She received her BFA in Photography and Related Media at The Fashion Institute of Technology. She is redefining traditional family structures through contemporary community kinship\, particularly amongst queer youth and the sisterhood of marginalized women and girls. Through her early work with local youth organizations throughout the five boroughs\, she’s incorporated image-making to envision a world of inclusion and power.  \nAbout Donnette and Kimberly Williams \nDonnette A. Williams has lived a life in service to her community through her practice of the arts\, which started at the age of four. As a holistic and inclusive occupational therapy professional\, she has been able to combine both passions to curate diasporic galleries and cultural forums for the whole person via platforms of dance\, culinary demonstrations\, book clubs\, and more. She has also served for nearly twenty years in her church’s Black History Ministry\, of which she is currently the Co-Director. \nKimberly Denise Williams believes that every community deserves the information and resources needed to make the best decisions\, and this has been a guiding mission in both her professional and vocational activities. A native Brooklynite\, she has worked to amplify her community and has been featured in national publications like Vibe and local Brooklyn outlets like Voices of Lefferts\, where she currently volunteers on the oral history project. Kimberly also serves on the advisory board of Little Caribbean. She can be found chasing whimsy\, grace\, and justice when she is not running around Prospect Park. \nThis event is two of three in our month-long dedication to the luminaries who transitioned this past year\, including Faith Ringgold\, Lorraine O’Grady\, and Judith Jamison. In the face of our present reality\, we understand that the work they have left behind continues to nourish our imaginations and shape our collective consciousness. Their transitions remind us that legacy is a living force. We hope you join us this month in communion. \n \n\nRSVP HERE\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n \n Add to calendar \n\n\n\n \n Google Calendar \n \n\n \n iCalendar \n \n\n \n Outlook 365 \n \n\n \n Outlook Live URL:https://parentguidenews.com/event/through-fabric-frame-faith-ringgold-lorraine-ogrady-and-the-black-feminist-gaze/ CATEGORIES:Local History ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://parentguidenews.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/Through-Fabric-and-Frame-Website_750x500_A-1-69jYf5tmp_.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20250222T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20250222T220000 DTSTAMP:20250220T090216Z CREATED:20250220T090216Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250220T090216Z UID:10025667-1740229200-1740261600@parentguidenews.com SUMMARY:Black Histories and Black Futures DESCRIPTION:@ \n \n \n\n\nJoin us for a full day of celebrating community at Weeksville Heritage Center as we honor Black histories and Black futures!
