In 2019, Midtown Indy invited a creative team to use the 2nd Floor gallery in The Concord Building to create a site-specific installation. Together, designer Wil Marquez and local resident Sabae Jones-Martin collaborated to inspire the next Black Legacy Project. The project includes quotes from Madam C.J. Walker, Wes Montgomery, and Mari Evans as well as portraits of Butler Tarkingtons black heroes, doctors, and journalists.
Wil Marquez is the designer and owner of W/purpose, a creative design studio curious about the built environment and its futureneighborhoods, buildings, streetscapes, and the spaces where people shop or spend their time.
Sabae Jones-Martin is a community advocate who serves on many boards and committees in Indianapolis, including The Butler Tarkington Neighborhood Association, The Martin Center Sickle Cell Initiative, The Community Resurrection Partnership, The Indianapolis Public School 43 Alumni Association, and The Team Tarkington Association. Jones-Martin is a certified paralegal and a life-long member of the NAACP.
