Twenty-six interactive stations make up a three-dimensional
"dictionary" designed for children from pre-school through
fourth grade in A is for Africa. Organized by the Charles H. Wright
Museum of African American History, this long-term installation
introduces young visitors to an array of interesting persons, places,
events, ideas, foods and objects important to understanding the
histories and cultures of Africa. While focusing on young children,
those who are older will certainly find this activity enjoyable,
engaging and educational. The Skillman Foundation and Target Corporation
are the sponsors of this exhibit. This exhibition is supported by
the Michigan Council for the Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National
Endowment for the Arts.
