To portray the power of community and represent Coatesville’s past and hope for the future, the Coatesville Black Media Renaissance (CBMR) will host a Showcase Event on Sunday, Sept. 26 from 2-6 PM at the city’s Brandywine Riverwalk.

Created by 10 local artists from the City of Coatesville, as well as the Brandywine Health Foundation, with funding from the Independence Public Media Foundation, CBMR is utilizing artistic mediums involving film, creation, writing, photography, and design to magnify voices in the community.

These instruments also offer anecdotes of resilience and aspiration and encourage Coatesville artists to influence the community narrative, as well as present a platform for residents to impact public policies shaping long-term solutions/opportunities.

  • a short film produced by Shanina Dionna
