Writers Visit the African American Museum of Iowa

Artist Jeni Reeves’ vibrant rainforest murals enliven the “Western Africa: Before the Boats” exhibit at the African American Museum of Iowa. Recently Jeni and museum curator Lynn Koos showed me and five writing friends Jeni’s detailed murals and the many other great features of this exhibit, which runs through March 30th, 2014. Next Monday on “The Studio” on KRUU-LP 100.1 FM, Lynn will explain this exhibit and the museum’s mission. She’ll also reveal plans for the museum’s upcoming 20th anniversary celebration.
