MaKshya Tolbert

 

Artist-in-Residence, Artist Exchange, Exhibiting Artist

MaKshya Tolbert is a poet, potter, and shade walker who recently made their way back to Virginia, where their grandmother raised them. They are a 2024-2026 Fireline Fellow (Patricia Valian Reser Center for the Creative Arts), and serve on the Charlottesville Tree Commission. In their free time, they are elsewhereโ€” where Eddie S. Glaude, Jr. calls, 'that physical or metaphorical place that affords the space to breathe.' Shade is a place is their first book.
