Join CAM in partnership with the Carolina Beach Centennial for a special screening of A Sense of Place, a powerful documentary created by Rhonda Bellamy in 2013. This film explores the rich coastal heritage of African-American fishermen and women, focusing on the historic community of Seabreeze—once a vibrant Black resort town on North Carolina’s coast.
Told through interviews and evocative photography by John Davis, A Sense of Place offers a spoken and visual record of a deeply rooted maritime culture and a community’s enduring connection to the water.
Following the screening, Bellamy—President of the Arts Council of Wilmington—will lead an intergenerational conversation with lifelong Seabreeze residents William Freeman, Elise Muhammad, and Nuri Muhammad. Don’t miss this opportunity to reflect, learn, and help preserve the stories of Seabreeze.
