Activism
Still Here explores stories of migration, displacement, and survival by eight artists that represent a spectrum of the African Diaspora. The works in this exhibition use moving images to highlight the rituals and traditions that persevere and evolve, despite the oppressive historical ripple effects of colonialism and the Transatlantic Slave Trade. Through practices and tools of survival such as migrating, defending, dancing, gathering, praying, and claiming agency over one’s body, the works in this exhibition demonstrate that black and brown bodies are not here for consumption of the white gaze, nor are they passive beings upon whom actions are done or inflicted. Artists include Larry Achiampong, Adama Delphine Fawundu, Third Horizon (Jason Fitzroy Jeffers), Carlos Javier Ortiz, Cinthia Marcelle, Melo-X, Helina Metaferia, and Joiri Minaya. Curated by Larry Ossei-Mensah, Dexter Wimberly and Kiara Ventura, Still Here was originally organized at the Museum of the African Diaspora, San Francisco.

Exhibits
“Indigenous Roots/Routes: Contested Histories, Contemporary Experiences” reflects on the past five centuries of colonization and cultural exchange among Indigenous Peoples, Europeans, Africans and Americans. The exhibition explores the processes of social, religious and political adaptation, what it means to be rooted in or unrooted from one’s land, and how searching out unfamiliar routes forces others to travel new ones. It draws upon art, textural works and rare books from three major collections at Penn State: the Eberly Family Special Collections Library, the Matson Museum of Anthropology and the Palmer Museum of Art. Together the materials encourage us to question how history is written and how it informs contemporary works by Indigenous artists and activists. Located in the Special Collections Exhibition Gallery, 104 Paterno Library on Penn State's University Park campus, the exhibition is open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday and 1 to 5 p.m. on Sunday, except for special holiday hours. The gallery is closed on Saturdays. Monthly hours of operation can be found at: https://libraries.psu.edu/monthly-hours?library=187

"Boho Dancers -These figures are generally thought to be the Boho Dancers of the Proto-rococo-loco
period. The Dance is held at the change of each season to help maintain the community
equilibrium in vulnerable times."
Artist Manya Goldstein uses recycled materials to construct modern artifacts and "bubbe meises". Her art "offers a wry yet tender insight into the condition of being human". Goldstein combines her quirky sense of humor and surreal sensibility with a refined sense of design and color.
