Step into a cross-cultural experience this month in the Minthorne Gallery (located in the Hoover Academic Building)!
The School of Communication and Design presents “Art and Artifacts from the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Surrounding Countries.” This exhibition features a variety of masks, figures, rugs, baskets and more that former U.S. Ambassador Harriet Isom collected during her time serving abroad. Purchased from itinerant vendors, these objects represent various people groups across the Central African belt and offer us a glimpse into their lives.
Despite their relocation to our gallery, we emphasize that many of these excellently crafted works served religious, spiritual, or ritualistic purposes in their original contexts.
Join us tomorrow (Friday)Â from 5 to 8 p.m. during Newberg’s First Friday Art Walk to celebrate this show with us!
