Join us for a free Black History Month celebration at the Newark Museum that links the United States and Ghana using videoconferencing.

The Newark Museum and Oiada International invite you to Akoma Ntoso (“linked hearts”), a community gathering at the Newark Museum.  The event will link residents of Cape Coast, Ghana and Newark in a “live” face-to-face videoconference.  The celebration will recognize African and African-American leaders for their contributions to our communities.

Featured will be art and music from both continents, including a live video connection to the Museum’s art galleries and performances by young singers.
