An Afro-LatinX Mixtape is a spirited group exhibition showcasing the African American and Latine experience through musical genres that carry on the traditions and essence of the diasporic journey, rooted inevitably to the African continent. The show, presented by Jamaica Center for Arts and Learning from July 26 to September 13, celebrates and highlights the themes and voices of pioneering genres and musicians who orbit across oceans, generations, and have influenced global culture despite marginalization and economic inequalities. These works, speaking on contemporary and ancestral imagery, are interpreted by emerging and established visual artists who embody the diasporic experience and multicultural lineage of New York City through painting, sculpture, collage, and videography.

Kinetic Scripts is group exhibition of 13 painters explore the intimate thoughts and reactions between text and abstract motions; which cause readers to respond to phonetic forms placed in front of them. Through similar and polarizing patterns, viewers are consumed to engage in personal dialogues in contemplation - creating a personal zine to flip through in your mind. The showcase, presented by 0h10m1ke and Adrian Bermeo at Revolving Store, ultimately speaks to the fluid nature of how we read artworks to ourselves, where words and abstractions coalesce to form unique and internalized stories.
