DC Exhibition Surpassed Expectations
Our Exhibit at Howard University in February brought in nearly $5000 which will ensure the continuation and expansion of art therapy for HIV-AIDS patients and workshops for children in Uganda in the coming year. Over 250 visitors saw the show and bought more than 40 of the art works by 6 different artists. Many thanks to the Howard University African Students Association for sponsoring the show, helping to hang it and staffing the galleries. Among those who contributed greatly to the success were Howard U. Students Cindy Unegbu, Musleehat Hamadu, Nnenne Okorafor, (in photo) Chris Daniels and Peter Kibanyi. Others who made invaluable contributions were Katherine Southwick, Sandy Barkan, Mimi Wolford, Steve Pflasterer and radio station WPFW.
