Current Exibit: Kaleidoscope

Art and the African-American culture has been inextricably linked since the founding of this country. Whether in song, dance or visual art, the African-American experience continues to be expressed with a passion born from spiritual beliefs, love, conviction and trauma.

As Moline celebrates Black history month, it welcomes the work of the wee-known speaker, author and psychologist Dr. Dwight Bailey. A native of Cleaveland, Ohio, Ddr. Bailey relocated to the Quad Cities in 2007. His art has been inspired by nature and his strong connection to the African-American experience.
