Event Details

Join Holly Harmon, Interpretive Specialist with Denver Art Museum, for a virtual exhibition overview of Amoako Boafo: Soul of Black Folks on display through February 18, 2024. Registration is optional and includes an email reminder.

Ghanaian artist Amoako Boafo's unique approach to portraiture captures individuals from Africa and the diaspora in nuanced and evocative paintings.
