The NY Photo community will be treated to a rare opportunity when forty-one Black Photographers present some of their finest work from the last ten years in Visions 1020 at the Wilmer Jennings Gallery at Kenkeleba, 219 East 2nd Street at Ave. B. Opening on Sunday, March 8th, 3pm to 6pm, followed with a panel discussion on Saturday, March 28th and closing on May 2nd, 2020.

New York is a special city where unique events happen daily but some events happen rarely if ever and this Sunday, March 8th kicks off one of those rare opportunities as Visions 1020 celebrates and displays a diverse array of imagery created during the second decade of the 21st Century.

When some of the finest and noted Black photographers in the world (including original and current members the noted Kamoinge photo group) and a variety of other well known photographers from the tri-state photo community come together in one space to exhibit from their collections is surely a reason to be celebrated.

We can thank the Curator/Gallery collaboration of Kamoinge member Beuford Smith and the lower Manhattan treasure Corrine Jennings of the historic Wilmer Jennings

Gallery at Kenkeleba for making this happen.

The Gallery is open Wed – Sat 11-6pm and all are welcome.

Selina Maitreya, Bringing Purpose to Being and Spirit to Living

Selina Teaches
In a previous and parallel life, Selina Maitreya was and is a highly regarded consultant to commercial photographers worldwide. A published author of 2 best-selling books and global lecturer, Selina has for the past 30+ years guided Creatives to form deeper vision and refine their inner spirit.
Prior to and concurrent to her coaching career for the last 30 + years, Selina has been a spiritual student studying many philosophies, and spiritual practices. Drawn to the simple yet powerful idea that We Are All ONE; that our natural inheritance is LOVE, and that our actions affect not only us but every single energy entity, Selina began to live her life as her practice. Committed to responding from LOVE to life’s many challenges, gifts and experiences, Selina began to live what she now calls: Practical Spirituality. Her life completely shifted and she realized that regardless of external circumstances as she responded to life through one of the many faces of love;kindness, gratitude, grace, compassion, wisdom and tolerance she was creating an existence that was peaceful and abundant, relationships that were rich and meaningful.
In the summer of 2013 Selina experienced a life changing experience that reinforced that the work that she had done to live in LOVE, was truly practical. About to sell her house of 20 years and begin a new life in NYC, Selina’s car was hit by another. Due to the automobile event, Selina was left severely impaired and brain damaged, unable to walk in her life for several months. Not knowing how she was to move into a new life or earn a living Selina continued to feel blessed, and was never concerned for her fate. She was unable to hold conversation or use her brain for tasks, yet she was left in a position where constant meditation and rest were required. During this time she was visited continuously by Spirit. Messages were downloaded daily and she was informed that her life was shifted forever. She was told that her lifelong role as “Teacher” was about to take another turn. Knowing that her practice of responding to all from LOVE , was the reason for her total certainty and lack of striving during a hugely life changing event, Selina became committed then and there to being a spiritual teacher helping others to respond to life as love, as they build lives guided by PRACTICAL SPIRITUALITY.
Selina lives in NYC and would be honored to assist you and share with you how Practical, Spirituality can truly be.
