HAPPENINGS

Our Artists, Our Collectors, Our Connections

"Diasporal Rhythms seeks to build a passionate group of collectors engaged in actively collecting visual art created by contemporary artists of the African Diaspora as well as to expand the appreciation of those artists’ work."

Students of Chicago’s King College Prep High School have participated each month in Diasporal Rhythms sponsored workshops. These sessions were led by some of the well-known contemporary artists of the African Diaspora in the Chicago area. These workshops have been conducted within the classroom setting and in the artists’ studios. Diasporal Rhythms gives many thanks to the following artists for giving up their time and their willingness to share their artistic talent and expertise. The artists include: Adedayo (Dayo) Laoye, Anthony (Tony) Wade, Juarez Hawkins, Julian Williams, Dalton Brown and Ted Feaster.
