Museum of the African Diaspora

The Museum of the African Diaspora (MoAD) will continue its highly successful Emerging Artists Program, designed to give local artists museum exposure and a chance to hone their skills, while providing visitors with opportunities to learn of the artists' transformation and adaptation that occurred as a result of the African Diaspora. A panel consisting of MoAD staff, local arts experts, and community partners will select four local artists, whose work will be displayed at the museum. A rotating schedule of exhibitions and complementary programming will offer museum audiences a chance to engage with the artists and explore the history and culture of the peoples in Africa, the African American experience, and the African Diaspora.
