- Core Purpose: To enrich life through story. In particular, we seek ways to share stories and approaches to storytelling that reflect "Black people’s full humanity." (Dr. Sarah Lewis, Aperture Magazine: Vision & Justice, vol. 223, Feb. 2016).
- Core Values: Empathy, Courage, and Creativity.
Our current efforts are focused on the Unusual Artist Ms. L.V. Hull, including:
- Love Is a Sensation, an affectionate, one-hour, home movie portrait of Ms. Hull that depicts her attempts to pursue her full creative powers, vanquish naysayers, and defer death long enough to present a cherished work of art to blues legend B.B. King.
- Exhibitions related to Ms. Hull's life and work.
- Preserving and Saving Her Unique Home in Kosciusko, MS.
