Call for Submissions – The Creative Legacy Project by We The Diaspora x All Black Creatives

Deadline: 31 May 2025

Behind every creative is a story shaped by the people, places, and moments that make us who we are. The Creative Legacy Project invites Black creatives to share a photo from their past, a snapshot of childhood, a treasured family moment, or a place of deep meaning, alongside a reflection on how that image continues to shape their creative work today.

How does your past inspire your present? What legacy are you building through your creativity?

What legacy are you building through your creativity?

@allblackcreatives and @wethediaspora are teaming up to spotlight the roots that shape our artistry. The Creative Legacy Project invites Black creatives to submit a photo from your past, a childhood memory, family moment, or a place that shaped you, along with a reflection on how it still fuels your creative work today.
This is a celebration of lineage, memory, and the stories behind the work we create.

We want to honour the roots that ground our artistry. Submit your photo and a short story to be featured in celebrating this collaborative project, celebrating Black creative lineage and legacy.

Submit your story and photo here to be featured!
