This temporary exhibition at the Oakland Museum of California (OMCA) was on view 2021-2022.

Afrofuturism is the past, present, and future reimagined through a Black cultural lens. This was a journey to experience the work of central figures of this cultural phenomena, to explore contemporary artworks and historical objects, and learn about the connections between important figures of Afrofuturism and how it is present in our everyday lives.
