Bolinga Black Art Expo

Paintings, artifacts and dancing were on display in the Wright State Student Union during the Bolinga Black Art Expo.

Sponsored by the Bolinga Black Cultural Resources Center, the expo was one of many Black History Month events taking place at Wright State University.

The Dayton Contemporary Dance Company wooed onlookers with performances about Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and African American churches. A dozen DCDC dancers performed, including Alexis Britford, a 2009 Wright State performing arts graduate.

“I looked up and got a huge grin because it’s exciting to see other people be excited about what your passionate about,” says Britford.
