Black History Month

In honor of Black History Month, we invite you to revisit our online conversations with some of today’s most notable Black artists. We look forward to having you join us for upcoming programs scheduled in February and throughout the year. The Yale Center for British Art is committed to engaging a diverse range of perspectives  in dialogue with British art and history. For more information on Yale University’s efforts to enhance diversity, support equity, and promote an environment of welcome, inclusion, and respect, visit Belonging at Yale.
