Collections by Michelle Brown WSG Kamora Herrington of Kamora's Cultural Corner

Kamora Herrington is Founder and CEO of Kamora’s Cultural Corner in Hartford, Connecticut.
She has offered cutting-edge community programs in Hartford for decades and is recognized for her groundbreaking work.
Kamora's Cultural Corner is a community space where people learn how to use their unique and shared identities to make genuine connections with others; Their work is driven by cultural humility. Cultural humility is the “ability to maintain an interpersonal stance that is other-oriented (or open to the other) in relation to aspects of cultural identity that are most important to the person.

The Cultural Corner serves, celebrates, and uplifts Hartford’s diverse families and individuals who are Black and Queer, as well as the larger community. The Cultural Corner is housed in the location of the former Kabbalah House community cultural center on Albany Avenue. Moving the Center into space with a history of welcoming marginalized communities into the larger Hartford community just made sense.
Before founding Kamora's Cultural Corner, Herrington was for 15 years the Mentoring Program Coordinator for True Colors. True Colors is a non-profit organization in Hartford that works to ensure that the needs of LGBTQ and general minority youth are recognized and served. True Colors manages Connecticut’s only LGBTQ mentoring program. 

Herrington has been able to collaborate with some of her now adult “True Colors” kids in the programming at Kamora's Cultural Corner.
