At the museum


At the museum, originally uploaded by ujima.

Met friends here to see the exhibit of The Art of African Women
which included more than 100 images taken by photojournalist
Margaret Courtney-Clarke and the pottery, beadwork, ornaments
textiles,etc. she had collected during her journeys all over the
continent. Beautiful and colorful!
We walked four blocks up Arch Street to eat lunch at the farmers'
market and talk about our favorite parts of the exhibit. I loved
the pictures that included the children being taught by mothers
and grandmothers how to keep the culture by learning the art
techniques.
