On this midsummer night, the line between the Fae and mortal worlds will no longer be divided. Tonight, we shall be #Enchanted2026!

As a thank you to all the love received for The Story of Queen Titania photo series, we will be hosting a charity art exhibition, A Midsummer Enchantment, on June 20th in Denton, TX, from 6 PM - 9:30 PM.

While creating this series, I could not have imagined the impact it would have on me and others. Not only has this journey given me a sense of direction in life, but it has also shown the beauty in our community and connections around us. This night will not only be a celebration for me. It will be a celebration for the community that uplifted me. It will be a celebration for the 5th anniversary of being officially recognized as the National Independence Day, Juneteenth. It will be a celebration of being the officially recognized Month of Pride for 27 years. It will be a celebration for all the black women, cis &trans, who have impacted, sacrificed, and shaped who we are today.

As an homage to Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream, we'll be having artworks within artworks. Texas local artists will be auctioning their work alongside the showing of The Story of Queen Titania. Our goal is to donate $5,000 to two non-profit organizations. Come and share your support for these organizations!
