“Time and Place: Multitudes of Black Experience in Miami” incorporates Kabuya Pamela Bowens-Saffo’s association with creatives in Miami. Bowens-Saffo touched multiple Miami neighborhoods including Coconut Grove and Richmond Heights.

Presenters Dr. Valerie Patterson, Dr. Donette Francis, and Dr. Simeon Richardson share their scholarship on aspects of History, Black Studies, and Miami Studies that are revealed in Kabuya Pamela Bowens-Saffo: From the Heights exhibition. How does the artist’s work reflect the time, place, and Black culture in Miami? Why is this archive relevant to documenting the Miami Black experience?

Refreshments will be served.
