About the event

We invite you to join us as we honor the life of Tamir Rice and his mother Samira’s stewardship of his legacy, on Sunday, November 20, at the Tamir Rice Memorial Gazebo and the Stony Island Arts Bank. Through three programs, we hope to center the act of remembrance and the importance of Black cultural spaces.

Programs include a conversation between artist and Rebuild Foundation founder Theaster Gates and artist Tony Lewis at 1:30pm. At 3pm, we will facilitate a Mellon Archives Innovation Program centering Black motherhood, Black boyhood, and resilience in the face of ongoing racial violence with Professor Kimya Barden. From 4 to 7pm, DJ Duane Powell will curate a house music set to celebrate Tamir’s life during his Sunday Service program.

Rebuild Foundation is the humble steward of the gazebo near which Tamir was unjustly killed by Cleveland Police Officer Timothy Loehmann within seconds of the squad…
