Meet Our Communications Manager, Ella

Ella Ray |  she/her/hers + they/them/theirs

Ella is no longer a team member here at Imagine Black. Their presence and hard work will continue to have an impact on the organization moving forward.

Ella Ray is invested in the power of the Black imaginary! Through text, image, archive, and shared space, Ella Ray strives to create objects and opportunities that support autonomous Black futures. They co-run a mutual project called POOL resources that prioritizes direct wealth redistribution and community care. 

Before, during, and after graduating from Portland State University with a B.A. in Art History and Critical Theory, Ella Ray spends their spare time wandering museums, dancing with friends, and arguing that all art is political. 

When Ella Ray gets a seat at the table, they ensure that everyone eats.
