Celebrating the wonderment & mysticism of Afrofuturism & otherworldliness

Join us on Tue, Mar 04, 2025 at 5:00 PM at the Lewis Music Library for an evening filled with wonder and excitement as we open our exhibition on Afrofuturism and Otherworldliness in Music. This exhibition showcase the beauty and magic of the genre, and spotlights some of the Black artists and musicians who are pioneers of developing and representing Afrofuturistic styles in their music and persona.

Including the launch of the exhibition, we welcome attendees to interact with the digital installations, allowing further exploration of media and content from key figures of Afrofuturism.

This event includes a welcome by Dr. Alexia Hudson-Ward; Associate Director of Research & Learning and Strategic Partnerships, and Avery Boddie; Lewis Music Library Department Head.
