Celebrate African American History Month with a Tour at Buffalo AKG Art Museum 

On February 22, 2026, the Buffalo AKG will host a themed tour for BAEC members centered on African Americans as artists, and people of color as subjects of modern and contemporary art works. The tour will highlight the achievements of artists such as Romare Bearden, Jacob Lawrence, Horace Pippin, Howardina Pindell, Theaster Gates, and Mickaleen Thomas. 

This docent-led experience will feature a curated experience focused on the artworks of African American artists while contextualizing their contributions to American society and to the art world at large. 

This specialized tour will begin at 1:00 p.m. on Sunday, February 22, 2026. It will depart from the visitor experience desk at the AKG Gundlach building.
