We Are Genre.

Genre: Urban Arts is a playground for creatives. Our global contributorship includes artists who are committed to their crafts from photography to spoken-word. We also offer exhibiting & performing opportunities for visual & performance artists via pop-up galleries. Anyone can submit their work to be published in our print magazine & on our site.

Founder and Editor-in-chief, Nakeysha Roberts Washington, launched Genre: Urban Arts in December 2015 as a quarterly magazine publication & a blog featuring daily site posts from contributors. We are based in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, but home to 60+ creatives who all have their own medium in which they create— Their own Genre.

Genre: Urban Arts is a true friend to the creative, a support for the artist in a world that wants us to end our dance with our connection to divinity- end our connection with the most innate part of ourselves. Here we are protected & freed from the societal pressures of mundanity.

We welcome you, #GenreFam!
