We are often asked what the name Overdue Recognition means- We chose Overdue Recognition Art Gallery because for too long, African-American artists have struggled for recognition against their peers. Our Gallery is a forum for artists to demonstrate their brilliance, integrity, and skills to achieve the recognition that is long overdue.
