Event Details

Join us for one last chance to visit and learn about the exhibition “Light Within Ourselves: Haitian Art in Iowa,” before the show closes on Sunday, September 7! Hear from an Art Center docent details about the exhibition and artworks on display in the A. H. Blank Gallery.

Organized in partnership with the Waterloo Center for the Arts (WCA), “Light Within Ourselves: Haitian Art in Iowa” showcases a selection of the rich holdings of Haitian Art in the WCA’s collection—the largest public collection of Haitian Art in both Iowa and the United States. This exhibition explores the vibrant diversity of Haitian artwork, featuring paintings, metalwork, sculpture, and drapos (beaded and sequined banners).

Public guided tours are offered every Saturday from 1 – 2 pm. Free; no registration required.
