As we head into the final days of the Biden-Harris Admin, I want to express my profound gratitude and heartfelt thanks to @POTUS for the opportunity to serve our nation these last four years. Public service is a privilege and it has been an honor and joy to serve at the @NEAarts.
In a video interview, Joy said he "was attracted to the enormity and nobility of this undertaking, the idea of transforming an entire city block into an internationally acclaimed hub for Black art and culture." @journalsentinel

I am honored to have been selected to lead the Bronzeville Center for the Arts. The arts are vital to our health and wellbeing as individuals and communities. I’m excited to break new ground and contribute to a world class institution where creativity and community connect.
Thank you, President Biden, for this amazing journey and the opportunity to serve. It has been the greatest honor of my lifetime.

From Big Chiefs immersed in the Black masking traditions of New Orleans, Louisiana to master carvers who created majestic totem poles in Southeast Alaska. Their awe-inspiring artistry and distinctive ways of living will stay with me throughout my life. What a gift!
Ethel Kennedy was a dear friend with a passion for justice, an irrepressible spirit, and a great sense of humor. She touched the lives of countless people around the world with her generosity and grace, and was an emblem of enduring faith and hope, even in the face of unimaginable grief. Michelle and I are thinking of the Kennedy family and all those who loved this extraordinary woman.
Happy October! As CAH enters the month of October, we proudly observe the start of National #Arts and #Humanities Month (NAHM) in the #UnitedStates. This important annual observance is a collective recognition of the importance of culture in #America.
"The arts and humanities help us tell our stories on our terms and make sense of the world."
