Black Artist Showcase at Jamestown Settlement
Event Details:
Black Artist Showcase at Jamestown Settlement is connecting the past and present through vivid intersections of contemporary art and 17th-century history. The showcase will be open the month of February from 1-29.
Guided by the theme – “the beauty of our lives” – 22 Virginia-based artists present more than 30 original interpretations and reflections of family, faith, music and social justice.
Jamestown Settlement showcases the cultural legacies of West Central Africans brought to Virginia in the 17th century through immersive gallery exhibits, films and education programs.
Black History Month programs culminate February 24 with “After Angelo,” named for one of the first African women in Jamestown, celebrating modern African American life and culture through art, performance and community conversation.
