A Monumental Tour Explores the African American Experience

Posted by on October 5, 2021

Monumental Tour is an outdoor sculpture show that empowers social change through art. This traveling exhibition will stop in Philadelphia through January 31, 2022. Visit the sculptures placed along the Benjamin Franklin Parkway and Delaware River waterfront.

The display, presented by Kindred Arts, features works by these acclaimed American artists:

  • Arthur Jafa
  • Coby Kennedy
  • Christopher Myers
  • Hank Willis Thomas

Each work is an invitation to viewers from any background to learn about and connect with a narrative or era they may not have endured personally, but one which continues to impact the African American experience.

Find out how to explore the Monumental Tour virtually and in person.
