What’s Happening at All Our Babies?
Each All Our Babies activation is a vibrant experience blending art, wellness, and community care. Through hands-on healing workshops, Afrofuturist storytelling, and sessions led by birth workers and artists, we center Black mothers and families in powerful and joyful ways. Attendees can expect wellness resources, cultural activities, giveaways, and creative expression at every event.
The series will culminate in our Final Celebration & Festival at Mall C in Downtown Cleveland—a large-scale, family-friendly event with music, food, art installations, and the unveiling of a permanent healing space. This space will serve as a legacy for the project, offering reflection, restoration, and community connection for years to come.

“Afrofuturism has become an umbrella term for considering how science fiction, fantasy, and technology can be used to imagine and reimagine lost pasts and new futures for alienated black ‘others.’”
from “Cyborg Grammar” by Tiffany E. Barber, Afrofuturism 2.0, The Rise of Astro-Blackness
