To commemorate Jamaica’s 60th year of colonial independence from the United Kingdom, Jamaican-American artist, Jodie Lyn-Kee-Chow presents a site-responsive mixed media installation of her ongoing performance project, Junkanooacome, a work informed by her research of the Jamaican masquerade, called Jonkunno, that was performed by enslaved Africans. The exhibition also includes new works on paper referencing archived testimonies of enslaved and free Jamaican women which will be incorporated in an international performance collaboration titled, Living Histories of Sugar set to debut in Fall 2022 in Kingston, Jamaica, Edinburgh, and Greenock, Scotland.
Come check out this installation, as well as the final iteration of “Dispatches from a Head of State” by Slinko, and artist studio presentations by Eric Ramos Guerrero, Slinko, Sally Lelong, Jodie Lyn-Kee-Chow, and Ariel Kleinberg.

8. Doug Skinner, FF Alumn, releases new publication
My novel NOMINATA is now available from Black Scat Books! You can get it on Amazon! I’ve been working on it for years: it’s not long, but it took me a while to figure out what I wanted to do with it. Here’s the blurb from Black Scat Books:
Nominata has gone missing, and her old friend Antonima is looking for her. Can the seven regulars in the Taproom help? Why are there strange lights and noises in the abandoned observatory? And what does the number 5040 have to do with all this?
Doug Skinner describes his novel as “an interactive verbal toy,” and Black Scat Books urges caution in handling. On the surface, the text is playful, comic, and wayward. Further immersion, however, reveals elaborate constraints, cross references, and parallels, all creating an artificial world in which everything is a reflection of everything else, including itself. All that and slapstick too!
And Black Scat proposes a contest, to encourage you to comb the text for acrostics. The details are at blackscatbooks(dot)com
