Sunday Service: Emory Douglas

  • NorthStar Church of the Arts 220 West Geer Street Durham, NC, 27701 United States (map)

Join us for a Sunday Service honoring Emory Douglas, Minister of Culture for the Black Panther Party and the revolutionary artist who transformed printmaking into a weapon for the people. Through bold imagery and radical design, Douglas gave visual voice to liberation movements—and showed us the power of art as strategy.

This service will include:

  • A reflection on Douglas’ legacy and the role of design in movements for justice

  • A hands-on poster-making activity inspired by the visual language of protest

  • Collective grounding, art-making, and community sharing

All are welcome. Children are invited to participate with RCC, and kids under 5 may attend with a caregiver.
Let’s gather to make, to remember, and to imagine new ways forward.
