The Museum will also have galleries full of masterworks by renowned artists in special exhibitions, including: JUAN LOGAN: Without Stopping, a special exhibition by internationally celebrated artist Juan Logan titled Without Stopping, which features an epic commissioned painting of the same name. The 6 ½ by 16-foot composition is Logan’s response to his learning about the people and histories of Africatown. CRYPTIC UNDER WING: Glass and Mixed Media by Rachel Wright — This exhibition utilizes glass, photographs, and textiles to create sculptural work about the natural world. Through her exploration of the Delta and the surrounding area, Rachel explores the relationship between the local rivers, lakes, and creeks, and the organisms that reside within and in tangent to them.
The family-favorite installation, Fantastical Forest. This interactive installation explores the intersection where nature and art meet. It was designed by local artist Lucy Gafford with the help of Ben Kaiser and Vanessa Quintana.
