"R&B floats through this 35,000-square-foot warehouse, which has been converted into a four-hall gallery space by artist Brandan “B-mike” Odums. His work studies the complexities of modern Black life through mixed media sculptures and huge spray painted portraits, covering themes like police brutality, Hurricane Katrina, and the Black Panther Party. The sweeping mural outside—a young Black girl with her arms outstretched toward the sky—is a community landmark." - ByAliza Abarbanel
