Join us at the Kamloops Art Gallery for an interactive guided tour of the exhibition, Alicia Henry: Witnessing, and engage in lively explorations of some of the relevant themes.

For the last two decades, Alicia Henry has explored unconventional approaches to portraiture, using the face to represent something that is hidden, revealed, and performed. In Witnessing, Henry’s compelling compositions are drawn from a multitude of references: the artist’s own memories, her collection of West African masks, and events on the street or on television. Imbued with her perspective as an African American woman, the figures assert themselves as timeless witnesses reflecting a variety of personal and social histories.

This program is offered in collaboration with the Kamloops Adult Learners’ Society (KALS). You must be a member of KALS to participate.

Registration is available online at kals.ca/registration/.
