Meet Emmanuel 'Manny' Dempsey, a talented artist whose creative journey began at a young age inspired by his culture, community, and personal experiences. You may recognize Manny's work from our Good in the Hood Multicultural Festival shirts, and recently, he was commissioned to create artwork for Randall Children's Hospital at Legacy Emanuel. As we celebrate Black History Month, take a moment to hear Manny's story. He shares why representation is important for young Black artists and how Legacy has supported him as an artist.
