"A celebration of African-American playwrights, produced in cooperation with A.R.T.I. (Africana Repertory Theatre of IUPUI) and IndyFringe. 2020 was a pivotal year for this festival. Its operations were turned over to ARTI, the Africana Repertory Theatre of IUPUI. With the pandemic seriously curtailing public showings, WFYI teamed up with OnyxFest organizers to film each of the six original plays created for the festival."--WFYI
