What can a football match tell us about migration, memory, and home?
Football is more than a game. In The African Game, artist Andrew Dosunmu turns it into ritual, memory, and everyday life across the African diaspora.
Join fellow MODA members for an afternoon at ADAMA, the African Diaspora Art Museum of Atlanta. ADAMA builds exhibitions around storytelling and community participation, rethinking what a museum experience can be.
What to Expect
A guided tour of The African Game and other current exhibitions
A closer look at how identity, memory, and place are carried and reshaped across contexts through story, space, and representation
Conversation with fellow MODA members & ADAMA Village Leaders in a creative, cultural setting
Time to explore independently after the tour
Space is limited. A link for registration will be sent in the MODA Member Newsletter on July 1.
Meet Your Hosts
The tour and discussion will be led by Dr. Fahamu Pecou, Founder and Chief Visionary Officer of ADAMA, and Terra Coles, Gallery Manager of ADAMA, who will share insights into the museum’s mission and approach to cultural experience design.
