Stephen Jenkins, Creative Director 
https://www.gracistbrand.com/
Gracist Brand presents wearable art that unites American denim with traditional West African fabrics, each piece handcrafted in collaboration with artisans in Niger. Founded by Stephen Jenkins, Gracist is rooted in two decades of studying Southern history and a belief that clothing can carry memory, meaning, and grace. At Crossroads, Gracist joins a conversation about fashion as a living art form — where craftsmanship, heritage, and storytelling are worn rather than framed.
