Arielle Grant is the founder and executive director of Render Free. The company is a work space and wellness club for self-identified black and brown women. Render Free disrupts racial trauma by promoting self care and healing through events and community connection. It is housed in a 3,000 square foot welcoming space in the basement of a south Minneapolis Church. Render Free was launched during the early months of Covid. Hardly an auspicious time, but it is still growing its membership. “Don't be afraid to dream really, really big,” says Arielle.
