The Gallery at the Fred P. Pomerantz Art and Design Center (FIT) today celebrates the opening of Black Health and Wellness, a month-long fine jewelry exhibition from FIT professor .fraley that acknowledges both Western medicine and homeopathic practices throughout the African Diaspora. With over 30 years of experience in the jewelry industry, Fraley—owner of Fine Design by Noah—personally curated a collection of roughly 30 pieces of fine jewelry from the Dominican Republic and Ghana. The exhibition, which opens today, is free to the public.

The Black Health and Wellness exhibition uses Fraley's fine jewelry craftsmanship to tell the story of the many medicinal and wellness practices common throughout Black communities and a nod to this year's commemoration theme. The showcase honors Black scholars and Western medicine practitioners and doulas, midwives, herbalists, naturopaths, birth workers, and others. Throughout history, people of color have relied on their self-determination to bring proper healthcare to their communities amid rampant discrimination and disparities in mainstream institutions. This includes establishing hospitals, such as the Howard University College of Medicine, and smaller clinics operated by grassroots organizations, including the African Union Society.
