THE KINSEY COLLECTION: Shared Treasures of Bernard and Shirley Kinsey, Where Art and History Intersect
is an extensive exhibition drawn from the artistic and historical treasures collected by
California residents and FAMU alumni, Bernard and Shirley Kinsey. THE KINSEY COLLECTION presents the journey of the Kinseys as they embrace and acquire art and artifacts. From rarely seen slave owners’ documents and brilliant expressions in paint to glimpses into private eighteenth and nineteenth-century lives, THE KINSEY COLLECTION reflects a rich cultural and historical heritage which they hope to preserve for future generations.

THE KINSEY COLLECTION includes works of art by important African American artists such as Romare Bearden, Elizabeth Catlett, Sam Gilliam, William H. Johnson, Jacob Lawrence, and Henry O. Tanner; as well as historical documents and artifacts of Benjamin Banneker, Frederick Douglass, Harriet Ann Jacobs, Alain Locke, Phillis Wheatley, and Malcolm X. When viewed as a whole, the ninety plus objects reveal important aspects of American history and culture.

The Brogan Museum will be conducting a variety of Programming and events surrounding this exhibit, and we encourage you to check back often for updates on all things relating to this exhibit.
