The African American Museum in Philadelphia presents Gardens of the Mind: Echoes of the Feminine View, an exhibition featuring five black women artists whose work explores spiritual cultivation and memory through their artistic practice.

By using large-scale installation, sculpture, painting, photography, and printmaking, artists Barbara Bullock, Martha Jackson Jarvis, E.J. Montgomery, Joiri Minaya and Glynnis Reed examine links between history, memory, and the natural environment. 

The artists consider our relationship with nature and how the mind itself is a field, which is developed and nurtured to promote creative, spiritual and intellectual growth.

Join us on Thursday, October 5 from 6 to 8 PM at the Gardens of the Mind opening reception. This event is free and open to the public and includes wine and light fare.
