This book came out two years ago, in celebration of the many talented Black visual artists that you may or may not have known about. It is a celebration of art from artists from across Africa, Latin America and the United States, who create art in a variety of mediums. There are 26 artists in total, from countries such as Ghana, South Africa, Cote d’Ivoire, England, Cuba, Sudan, Mali, and many others. While this is not a book about music, it is a beautiful celebration of Black excellence not just in the United States, which you can use to introduce various forms of art or perhaps discuss specific countries in the African diaspora, by focusing on an artist from that country. The variety of mediums and artists is what makes this book a great compendium of Black visual artistry to keep in your classroom year round. Check out some of the featured artists below:

    Hi!
    My name is Polina, and I teach general music PreK-8th grade in Connecticut. I am a music teacher who is passionate about writing-so I combined my two passions into one in Creating Musical Literature! I love using books in the classroom and I am constantly seeking ways to create musical moments and connections related to the book we are reading. 

    I have been teaching general and vocal music for ten years. I have three teaching certifications in music, dramatic arts, and technology. I started Creating Musical Literature as a way to incorporate more books into the classroom and explore my passion for writing. If you have a book recommendation for me to check out, feel free to email me at creatingmusicalliterature@gmail.com.

    You can also find me at any of my social media handles on Instagram, Pinterest,  and TikTok.


    ​Here's to creating more musical literature!
