Join us for the opening celebration of “Samantha Box: Caribbean Dreams.” Samantha Box is a Jamaica-born, New York-based photographer. Her newest body of work, created over the last six years, explores the concept of diaspora: the dispersion of a people from their original homeland.
Be among the first to view the newest exhibition. Bring family and friends to see the art and enjoy the party! Dine on complimentary charcuterie from the Cheese Shop and Jamaican cuisine from Palms Caribbean Catering, plus the evening’s ‘dark and stormy’ signature cocktail and seltzer bar provided by Tangerine Food Co. (Beer and wine available for purchase.) Assorted desserts also provided by Tangerine Food Co. Remarks from the John and Mary Pappajohn Director will take place at 6 pm.
This event is free; registration is not required. This event will be documented with photography.
