The “Donald in Denver: Discord & Dissent” exhibition features moments from Candidate Trump’s first public appearance in Denver through the city’s celebration of the inauguration of President Biden through the lens of Vince Chandler. Chandler is a documentary photographer and filmmaker with twenty years of professional experience creating art and documentary visuals across the United States whose photos have featured in national newspapers, cable networks, magazines, and international advertising campaigns. Sales from the exhibition will benefit Brother Jeff’s Cultural Center.
City and community leadership will hold a public conversation, hosted by the Honorable Auon’tai Anderson, at brother jeff’s Cultural Center in historic 5 Points, discussing how the City of Denver and the people who live here can support communities targeted by President Trump’s second federal administration. The panel will include representatives from Denver’s civic and community leadership.
Topics will range from what can we learn from the past to prepare for the future, to can local policy be safeguarded from federal interference, and building community through mutual aid. Founded in 1994, the Brother Jeff’s Cultural Center is located in the historic Five Points District in Northeast Denver—a space committed to fostering growth, strength, and voice in the community. The center hosts a free community food pantry, as well as a variety of special events and celebrations that serve to ground community throughout the year including Juneteenth, Kwanzaa, and Black History Month activities.
