We will consider the legacies of colonialism in the history of the African collection and focus on the new art UMMA has acquired to create a vibrant museum experience for our visitors.

This 90-minute event digs into provenance, cultural exchange, colonial entanglements, contemporary market dynamics, and the ethical questions museums face when artworks have long, layered histories.

Won't you join us?
