Join us for an evening of music and drawing in Douriean Fletcher: Jewelry of the Afrofuture and the Ancient World. An instructor is available to help develop your sketching skills—whether you're a beginner, student, or practicing artist of any age. Live music by Peabody Institute students enlivens the spaces and keeps the creativity flowing. Just bring your interest in drawing—we’ll provide the materials!

 

Douriean Fletcher: Jewelry of the Afrofuture is dedicated to jewelry artist Douriean Fletcher, whose work has shaped the cinematic worlds of Marvel Studios’ Black Panther films and Coming 2 America. The exhibition explores the self-taught metalsmith’s jewelry as a powerful narrative tool in art, Black identity, and visual storytelling and spotlights works from the Walters collection that inspired the artist. The exhibition is on view from April 18 to August 9 in our Temporary Exhibition Gallery on Level 1.
