At 4 p.m. Saturday at the ACCI Gallery, member Julie Atkinson who has three of her own paintings on display at the North Berkeley artist co-op will moderate a conversation with five other Black artists: Akaysha Calhoun, Sloane Gross, Kelvin Curry, Xan Walker and Xioneida Ruiz. The event is free, though you're asked to RSVP.
Atkinson, who was raised in the South Bay and moved to Weston, Connecticut, when she was 12, didn't know any artists growing up. A Stanford Law grad, she practiced law for a decade before finding her passion for art through online tutorials and community art classes.
