The Harn Museum of Art at the University of Florida will display art from Spelman College—a historically black liberal arts college for women located in Atlanta, Georgia. The Harn is one of five venues across the United States exhibiting “Silver Linings: Celebrating the Spelman Art Collection.” Through 39 works by nearly 30 artists, “Silver Linings” uplifts the legacy of artists of African descent spanning the 20th century through the contemporary moment, many of whom have been overlooked by mainstream art museums. The exhibition will be on view from Feb. 4 to July 6, 2025. Generous support provided by Art Bridges. Admission is free.
