Throughout its vast continent of myriad cultures\, languages\, climates and politics\, its people share a ceremonial respect of a spiritual authority; an admiration of nature and the animal kingdom; and an understanding of Slavery’s lasting influence on natural law and order. I believe these commonalities are bound together\, and I have collected various pieces that highlight all three after first being introduced to this art in Roxbury\, MA by Aboubacar in 1994. Throughout our friendship and trade\, I began to understand the Diaspora and the journey of my people.” \n Eddie Jenkins '72 URL:https://priorperformingartscenter.holycross.edu/event/eddie-jenkins-72-african-art-collection-showing-at-the-prior/ LOCATION:Boroughs Theatre (Prior Performing Arts Center)\, 1 College St\, Worcester\, MA\, 01610\, United States CATEGORIES:Holy Cross Community,Worcester Community ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://priorperformingartscenter.holycross.edu/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/EddieJenkinsWeb-d2.jpg END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
