This short News Post invites you to the Memorial for A.M. Weaver, next Tuesday, Jan. 16, 2018, at the African American Museum in Philadelphia. It’s fitting that the Memorial take place at the museum she loved and which embraced her and her curatorial projects. “Gardens of the Mind,” A.M.’s most recent exhibition at AAMP, shows her activist and feminist curating as well as her devotion to the spiritual side of the human condition. The exhibition is still up and will continue through Jan. 16, for those who visit the Memorial to see.
