Children’s Art Carnival in Harlem: The Making of Contemporary Artists examines the role of the Children’s Art Carnival in Harlem as a site for artistic development, community engagement, and support for Black and diverse contemporary artists. Tracing its evolution from an educational initiative to an independent organization, it considers the leadership of Betty Blayton-Taylor and the Carnival’s commitment to community-based arts education shaped by the cultural and political context of Harlem.
