Friends of African American Art and Culture at CMA

Friends of African American Art and Culture at CMA The new energetic board includes members of the CMA board and several new volunteers, all of whom are eager to share their passion for African-American art."

Friends of African American Art and Culture is a membership affiliate group of people across genders, ethnicities and ages brought together by their appreciation of artistic and cultural contributions of African Americans. "The excitement from the popular Chemistry of Color exhibition in 2009 sparked a momentum that resulted in the formation of this dynamic group," Karen Brosius, executive director, said.

Thank you for hosting us.
