Now open, Soul of a Nation: Art in the Age of Black Power presents the complex work of Black artists who—at a time of dizzying political, social, and aesthetic revolution—produced some of the most innovative and electric art of the 20th century. See it now through Feb 3. And, don’t forgot to grab your tickets for tomorrow’s horn-infused dance party with Soul in the Horn! Dance to hits from the 1960-80’s, enjoy a special after hours viewing of Soul of a Nation, and have your portrait taken by Paper Monday.
