The arts organization Black Art in America, or BAIA, was created out of love for Black art, Black community and Black excellence. They’ve elevated the community of Black artists since 2010 with arts advocacy workshops, management services, and exhibitions.

This year, BAIA hit a major landmark with the grand opening of their new dedicated gallery space in East Point. The BAIA gallery showcases art by both renowned and emerging Black artists. Founder, CEO, and visual artist Najee Dorsey joined “City Lights” host Lois Reitzes via Zoom to discuss the new gallery.
