African American Women in Arts & Culture

Join the Chester County History Center for an illuminating panel conversation exploring the profound impact of African American women on arts and culture. This dynamic discussion brings together three distinguished leaders whose work has shaped and transformed the cultural landscape: Dr. Felicia Bell, renowned public historian and former senior advisor to the director at the Smithsonian National Museum of American History; Imani Roach, Inaugural Director of the Brind Center for African and African Diasporic Art at the Philadelphia Museum of Art; and Patricia Wilson Aden, President & CEO of the Greater Philadelphia Cultural Alliance.

Through their unique perspectives and wealth of experience, these visionary women will guide attendees through the past and present of African American women’s influence in arts and culture, while collectively imagining pathways toward a more inclusive and representative future. This event offers a special opportunity to engage with leaders who have broken barriers and created spaces for diverse voices in our cultural institutions. Join us as we celebrate their achievements, learn from their insights, and explore how their work continues to shape our understanding of history, art, and cultural heritage.
