CityStream: Onyx Fine Arts Collective

Gallery Fine Arts Collective provides a welcome spot for artists of the African diaspora to display their work no matter their resumes. Gallery co-founder Ernie Thomas recalls numerous stories from talented artists turned away from other galleries because they had never shown their art before. He says that practice creates a void, preventing African Americans from chronicling their daily experience. Now, thanks to Onyx Fine Arts Collective, artists say they have an outlet to express a cultural language that comes out in their work. Producer Randy Eng takes a look.
