Afrrican American Museum, Charleston

There was so much to see at the International African American Museum, that I was disappointed that I had so little time to take it in properly.

In fact, from all appearances, it appeared to have a far more comprehensive history than many others I have visited. For as it promises; it tells the unvarnished stories of the African American experience across generations, the trauma and triumph that gave rise to a resilient people.

The pictures and story boards I was able to see during a limited period, were really good.

So, below I have recorded all the pics and stories I was able to take, in the hope that soon I will be able to return to them and educate myself thoroughtly.

If I ever visit Charleston again, I will certainly put aside an entire day to spend inside this beautiful and educational museum.

 

I love art😍

 I love art galleries so visiting MOMA (museum of Modern art,) in various cities is a must.

is

San Francisco's MOMA is by far the best I have seen though.

And guess what? A Jamaican artist ' big bout ya,.😬

Entrance to Ebony''s exhibit.

His name is Ebony Patterson of Kingston, Jamaica and he was born in 1981.

Her series depict black men in the USA awaiting their fate😡.

Here are some other pieces I love.

The background is real greenery 

                 How did these get in?

If these three made it, my pencil piece below should too😡!

The sculptures were good too

These two are in front of the Art academy.

There was also a production called  "The Visitors,,"which depicted various artists playing and chanting from different places. I found myself chanting along after a while.

Art is so diverse, intriguing and calming.

Yup, I am part of art too 😊
