The Lyndon House Arts Center is playing host to the exhibit #NotAStereotype, guest curated by La Ruchala A. Murphy, the first recipient of the Lyndon House Arts Foundation's Guest BIPOC Curator program.

For the exhibition, Murphy designed and managed a regional art call requesting submissions by Black artists to be considered for this exhibition. Artists from the Southern states entered their works to her curatorial concept in a variety of mediums. ANM's Alexia Ridley spoke to Murphy about the exhibit.
