Emmy-award winning journalist Nik Heftman held the Chicago premiere of his first feature-length film The Negro Artist at Gorton Center on January 17. The film focuses on the story of poet Caleb “The Negro Artist” Rainey, and his work and lived experience as a black artist in rural Iowa. Lake Forest residents Jim and Tom Foley sponsored the premier and joined Heftman, Rainey, and veteran journalist Doug Burns for a discussion following the screening. thenegroartist.com
