Event Details

As part of the closing celebration for the exhibition Leilah Babirye: We Have a History, join us for an afternoon of poetry woven through the arts of Africa gallery. Poets will give voice to Babirye’s sculptures — works that hold queerness, exile, kinship, beauty, and belonging with fierce tenderness. This program offers an intimate activation of the gallery, where the voices of poets meet Babirye’s artistic forms in real time.
