This month, Johanne Rahaman will lead the tour. Johanne Rahaman is a Trinidadian-born, Miami-based documentary photographer, working in both film and digital formats since 2002, and founder of the ongoing photographic archive, BlackFlorida, which examines shifting urban and rural spaces occupied by the Black communities throughout the State. Her work has appeared in the New Yorker Magazine, Vogue, National Geographic, Hyperallergic, Slate, Jezebel, Huffington Post, and NPR. She has been published in Oxford American Magazine, Photo District News, and the photojournal, Mfon: Women Photographers of the African Diaspora.

Local Views at PAMM gives visitors a first-hand interaction with local artists by creating conversations centered around art and the creative process. This casual 30-minute conversation takes place on the fourth Thursday of each month. Free with museum admission. First come, first served.
