An Exhibit Celebrating Black Women Throughout the Diaspora

The Women’s Museum of California is excited to announce its newest exhibit “The Beauty, Brilliance and Bravery of Black Women.”

This exhibit celebrates the diverse beauty, brilliance and bravery of Black women throughout the world and highlights many local women that have made amazing contributions within their communities and professions. Our guest curator, Starla Lewis, is a longtime professor of Black History at Mesa Community College views the exhibit focus from a viewpoint well honed after 25 years of study and teaching the topic within the social scope of American life.

“The Beauty of the Black woman was birthed in Africa and travels throughout the Diaspora from continent to continent, island to island and as a result this beauty is represented throughout the world. The outer beauty is a manifestation of the inner beauty. This beauty has polished the soul through generations of joys, sorrows, triumphs and tragedies”.  -  Starla Lewis

The WMC is located at NTC Liberty Station 2730 Historic Decatur Road, Suite #104, San Diego, CA 92106.  Additional details pertaining to the exhibit can be found by visiting our website: www.womensmuseumca.org.
