Ever wonder what goes on behind the scenes before you see the artwork on our walls?  Here’s a sneak peek at how we’re hanging Streets of Dakar, Senegal (from Afrikan Pilgrimage: The Extended Family) as we prep for the opening of Aminah Robinson: Journeys Home, A Visual Memoir 
The magic in action: 
 🎨 Our Facilities crew starts by painting the perfect backdrop…7 coats of paint! 
🔧 Our Exhibitions team steps in with precision mounting hardware and protective mylar. 
Then our registrars join forces for the big moment to hang the artwork just right. 

It takes a village (and a LOT of careful measuring) to bring these powerful exhibitions to life! Every piece, every person, every detail matters. 
  
👉 Swipe through to see the process unfold, then mark your calendars for October 16th when Journeys Home opens. Trust us—you won’t want to miss this one! 
See you soon! 💫
