Founded in Harlem in 1965, the WEUSI Collective—Swahili for "Blackness"—was a revolutionary force that redefined Black identity in the art world. When mainstream institutions excluded Black voices, WEUSI created their platforms. In 1967, they opened Nyumba Ya Sanaa ("House of Art"), Harlem's first Black artist-run gallery. Their work embedded African symbolism, spirituality, and political power into the American art landscape.

Founding members included Ben Jones, Otto Neals, Taiwo DuVall, Ademola Olugebefola, Emmett Wigglesworth, Dindga McCannon, Kay Brown, and others—artists who paved the way for generations of Black creatives.

"The WEUSI Artist Collective served as a trailblazing catalyst of the Black Arts Movement of the '60s and left an indelible mark on Harlem's cultural fabric, said Michael Unthank, Co-Chair of the Board of Trustees for The Children's Art Carnival. We are proud to honor their commitment to Black creativity and community."

WEUSI's impact rippled nationwide, influencing the formation of major institutions including The Studio Museum in Harlem, the Schomburg Center, and community-based galleries from Chicago to Oakland. Their art continues to be featured in major exhibitions, including the Smithsonian's National Museum of African American History and Culture.
