The Colored Girls Museum: Artist Talk: Urgent Care for Urgent Times
URGENT CARE FOR URGENT TIMES
The Spring Preview of A Good Night’s Sleep, Act Two: Urgent Care will continue Sunday tours. Tours begin at 1:15.
Join Us Sunday May 21st at 1:15 for an Artist Talk by Petra Floyd and Joy Ude about their site-specific work, Chamber.
Chamber has transformed the third floor of The Colored Girls Museum into an intimate space to share and meditate on the thoughts of Colored Girls seeking a good nights rest!
Visitors enter a cloth tent, inside handwoven cloth baskets beckon guest to sit and curl up in the baskets, mirroring the gestures of finding solace in a loved one’s embrace or retiring into the groove of a well loved couch. Suspended at eye level above the baskets are a cloud of of transparent envelopes filled with the written hopes, dreams, and fears of colored girls.
After May 21st, The Colored Girls Museum will be open for groups of ten or more by appointment only.
The Colored Girls Museum is Sanctuary not for Colored Girls Only, but for anyone who is ready for a conscious revolution. Join us, either at our physical location in Historic Germantown, or engage with us on line. We urge you to create Sanctuary for you and yours, wherever you are right now.
We are looking forward to seeing you, and we will be here when you are ready!
