This week’s photo gallery spotlights community connection and creative expression across St. Louis. Entrepreneurs gathered at CIC St. Louis for a Frizzy Fest info session, gaining insight on vendor opportunities and festival branding. At WerQfest, vibrant performances by Avery Wilson, Golliday, and others lit up Atomic by Jamo, celebrating Black queer, trans, and non-binary artistry. We also turn our lens on Rita Henderson, pictured outside her Villie neighborhood home—once owned by renowned Black attorney and civil rights advocate Homer G. Phillips, whose legacy lives on in St. Louis history—still awaiting repairs weeks after the devastating May 16th tornado.
