About this event
n partnership with the Village of Wellington, AfriKin Foundation proudly presents a Black History Month exhibition aligned with the national 2026 theme, A Century of Black History Commemorations, as established by the Association for the Study of African American Life and History (ASALH). This landmark theme honors 100 years since the first organized national observances of Black history, initiated by visionary historian Carter G. Woodson, whose work transformed how Black life, culture, and contributions are studied, celebrated, and understood across the United States and the global African diaspora.
Held from February 25 through March 1, the exhibition bridges Black History Month into Women’s History Month, emphasizing the role of artists—particularly women and diasporic voices—as cultural historians, healers, and architects of collective memory.
