The African and Modern Art Show “A Fusion Platform of Organic Art” is organised as a fundraiser to express appreciation for the Human Rights Campaign, a diverse grassroots constituency with over 750,000 members and supporters nationwide. As the largest national lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender civil rights organization in the country, HRC envisions an America where LGBT citizens are ensured their basic equal rights and can be open, honest, and safe at home, at work, and in the community.

The featured artist is Mago*, presenting No man’s land but everyone’s territory, a modern art series of fundamental graphic elements, inspiration, and work in New York City.

The celebrated Bengally Collection of Tribal Art from Africa showcases an authentic collection of hand-carved sculptures, life-like masks, delicate glass beads, and hand-woven textiles.
