BUY THE MISSION

Yellow House is fully committed to giving space to artists, poets, and activists who speak truth to power, with the hope that we can be part of the change. We are grateful to all who have engaged with us, especially when it is hard, messy, and unpopular. The artists captured in this brief video are just a few of the powerful examples of members of our creative family shining a bright light

This interview with Rachel Brown, Sheila Goloborot

This interview with Rachel Brown, Sheila Goloborotko, and Hope, by the brilliant community treasure that is Anne Schindler, is super special. Their combined voices give a glimpse into the intentions behind the Reciprocal Exhibition currently on view here at Yellow House. It goes deep as it explores themes of truth, care, curiosity, liberation and - of course - reciprocity.

We hope you will listen/watch at the link in our bio. ALSO, you have two more days to check on Sheila's exhibition at FSCJ South Gallery, which she discusses during this interview. And you can see our exhibit this Wed 12-7pm and Sat 11am-2pm.

Thank you @fcconair and @wjctjax for giving a platform for artistic voices.

We’re open 12-7pm and will be reveling in the beauty of free art, free speech, free expression, free books (!) and the freedom to just be.

And if you have anything to give to the Community Cart, we’ll gladly receive. And if there is anything you need, let us know.

Too wild! Duval County School Board voted to ban

Too wild! Duval County School Board voted to ban the graphic novel version of 1984 tonight. During Banned Books Week. 1984 - the dystopian (not so much) novel about living under totalitarianism and the ever-present big brother. Censorship, and more. You. Can’t. Make. This. Up.

“The worldview of The Party imposed itself most successfully on people incapable of understanding it. They could be made to accept the most flagrant violations of reality because they never fully grasped the enormity of what was demanded of them.” 1984

I still believe this, too, will fall.

Freedom to write, create, read, and BE was in full

Freedom to write, create, read, and BE was in full effect with families from @bloomlabjax and so many visitors today. For everyone who made a journal, took in the exhibition, printed a bit of letterpress, fed our neighbors, typed, wrote, and spoke your truth - Thank you!

Join us for extended hours tomorrow as we focus on

Join us for extended hours tomorrow as we focus on FREEDOM! In some ways it is like any other day, but we will activate the print studio to make prints, journals and bookmarks with images and messages of dissent and hope. There are banned books to share snd a powerful exhibition to breathe in. And we’ll make sure everyone is registered to vote.

Fall of Freedom is an urgent call to the arts community to unite in defiance of authoritarian forces sweeping the nation. Our Democracy is under attack. Threats to free expression are rising (don’t we know it!). Dissent is being criminalized. Institutions, and media have been recast as mouthpieces of propaganda. Art is being targeted AND it is part of the solution.

Upholding free expression, creating a just space for people to find each other, speaking truth to power, and pushing back against fascist forces have been core to our mission since our founding nine years ago. And this weekend we join with thousands of artists across the country in acts of creative courage.

Our freedoms to speak, to question, to create, to love, and to live without fear are not privileges. They are rights, earned, defended, and carried forward by all of us. When we forget them, they fade. When we remember them, they rise again.

So come on through 11am-4pm. The event is free, but we welcome offerings. or our mutual aid efforts. Because, you know, resistance also means taking care of one another. 💛💚

Big love to the organizers @falloffreedom. We see you and thank you.

“I think if I had to put a finger on what I cons

“I think if I had to put a finger on what I consider a good education, a good radical education, it wouldn’t be anything about methods or techniques. It would be loving people first.” — Myles Horton

Turning on the lights to open for the day has us pausing with a quote curated into the current exhibition - one of several hovering high on the walls, over doors and windows. By the great Myles Horton, founder of Highlander Center, these words articulate our own thoughts on education.

We are here from 12-7pm today. Come on through if you are needing inspiration or conversation or a corner of quiet.
