Black Masking Culture

See contemporary artist and educator, Big Chief Demond Melancon of the Young Seminole Hunters’s huge Mardi Gras Indian suits. In a rare opportunity, this will be the first time outside of the US that they’ll be on display in the Tapestries Gallery. You’ll be able to get up close and admire the intricately hand-sewn beadwork and learn more about the suits on how they’re from imagined events from African and American history.
