This event will be held virtually on Zoom. The Cleveland Museum of Art will share ritual and royal objects of African art.

See other dates and locations for this program on our events calendar.

Compare ritual and royal objects from the Yoruba and Edo peoples of Nigeria to learn how their rulers maintain worldly authority with the assistance of spiritual forces. Examine a colorful beaded crown that empowers a Yoruba ruler and a 300-year-old bronze sculpture that establishes legitimacy for an Edo king. These and other stunning objects will introduce divination, mythology and communication with ancestors.

Presented by the Cleveland Museum of Art.
