Beginning with an opening reception and performance on Saturday, September 10, from 6:00 until 8:00 p.m., this exhibition brings together a group of dynamic and culturally diverse artists of color who collectively work in a broad range of media mirroring the distinct experiences of the artists themselves. Their art shares life stories through expressions of frustration, pride, racism, joy, and pain.
The exhibition includes works and performances by Tina Brewer, Ashley Jones, Mary Martin, Christine Bethea, Jo-Anne Bates, Ruth Bedeian, Carlos Peterson, V Owens, Ricardo Iamuuri Robinson, and Jasiri X.
“Soul of a Region” will be on display in the University Museum from Saturday, September 10, until Saturday, November 19, 2022.
The University Museum is located on the first floor of Sutton Hall. Museum hours are Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday 2:00–6:30 p.m.; Thursday noon–7:30 p.m.; and Saturday noon–4:00 p.m. The museum is closed on Sundays, Mondays, and university holidays. The Museum will be closed Tuesday, October 25, for Fall Break.
