The premier San Diego art exhibition celebrating the work of Black visual artists and creatives. Part of Kinfolk Fest Juneteenth Week. "ONYX: A Black Artist Exhibition" is a celebration of Black creative expression rooted in San Diego. Curated by Imani Camara, the exhibition brings together Black artists who are from or currently based in the city — painters, musicians, visual artists, and storytellers whose work deserves to be seen, documented, and celebrated on its own terms. The exhibition moves beyond singular narratives. Each work on view reflects a distinct voice, medium, and perspective, while contributing to a larger collective portrait of what Black creativity looks like in San Diego today. "ONYX" creates space for ambiguity, experimentation, and personal storytelling — honoring the full depth of each artist's identity rather than flattening it. The title is intentional. Like the stone, "ONYX" speaks to layered identities and the depth formed through connection. It also references discovery — many of the artists featured were found simply through conversation and community, which raises a question the exhibition sits with: how had they not been seen before? This special exhibition date for "ONYX" is part of Kinfolk Fest Week, San Diego's Juneteenth celebration. The San Diego Black art scene is actively taking shape, and this exhibition is both a reflection of that and an investment in it. By bringing these artists together under one roof, "ONYX" affirms that this creative ecosystem exists. Curated by Imani Camara and curatorial assistant Faith Richardson. Part of Kinfolk Fest Week, June 17–20, 2026. Visit: https://www.sdmelanin.com/events/onyx-x-kinfolk SD Melanin on Instagram and Facebook

Ashes & Arrows is a dynamic country/rock duo with roots stretching from the Blue Ridge Mountains of Asheville, North Carolina, to the alpine landscapes of Arrowtown, New Zealand. Known for their soaring harmonies, heartfelt storytelling, and electrifying stage presence, the trio delivers a sound that resonates long after the final note. Blending influences from artists like NEEDTOBREATHE, Judah & The Lion, and The Avett Brothers, Ashes & Arrows crafts music that feels both deeply personal and widely relatable—songs about connection, growth, and the winding roads that lead us home. The band’s journey began in 2021 at an open mic night in downtown Asheville, where Ciaran McMeeken and Jonathan Calhoun first crossed paths. A shared passion for songwriting and honest storytelling sparked an instant chemistry, laying the foundation for what would become Ashes & Arrows. In 2024, the band reached a major milestone as semi-finalists on Season 19 of America’s Got Talent. Their performances introduced Ashes & Arrows to a national audience, earning praise for their raw emotion, tight harmonies, and undeniable authenticity. Also in 2024, Ashes & Arrows released their debut album, "Chapter One: The Long Road North." The project marked a major step forward for the band, showcasing their signature blend of heartfelt songwriting and soaring harmonies. Their growing fanbase has followed them on tour across the U.S., where their heartfelt performances continue to leave lasting impressions. Their latest release, "The Pointful Journey" marks the next chapter in their evolving sound. With new music on the way and a clear creative vision, the band continues to push forward, rooted in honest songwriting and driven by connection. From mountain towns to national stages, Ashes & Arrows is carving their own path in modern music, creating songs meant to be felt, lived in, and carried forward wherever the road leads.
