Conversations with a Continent: Uganda

December 10, 2008
7:00pm - 9:00pm

Location:  92nd Street Y at 1395 Lexington Avenue, Room to be announced

 

For a second year, participants of Conversations with a Continent are introduced to African art and culture and the contemporary realities of life in North America and Africa.  Each session, devoted to a specific country, fosters a dialogue among audience members, scholars, artists, policy-makers and Africans living in the United States.  Co-presented with the 92nd Street Y.

 

Uganda takes its name from the Buganda kingdom of the Baganda people.  This program will examine a country whose history and culture has long been a cultural melting pot, as evidenced by the 30-plus different languages belonging to five distinct linguistic groups, and an equally diverse cultural mosaic of music and art.

 

Series Subscription: $200

Each Session: $25/$20 for Museum for African Art members

Please visit the 92nd Street Y's website to purchase tickets.  Members, please call 212-415-5500 to order.

 

Conversations with a Continent is co-sponsored by the Museum for African Art and the 92nd Street Y.

 

Conversations with a Continent is supported by the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs.
