SUMMARY:Last Supper Daily Viewings

Created by artist Akili Ron Anderson in the early 1980s as a commission for the New Home Baptist Church\, Jesus and his disciples are depicted as African American men\, an example of the artist’s mission of placing Black people in the center of an ongoing cultural conversation.

NMAAHC also created a 3D rendering of the sculpture\, which has been accessioned into its permanent collection.

The Last Supper sculpture will be open to the public from 1-4pm daily\, during the week of Passover and Easter. A guide will be on hand to provide context and answer questions. \nEvent Details\nHost: Studio Acting Conservatory\nDate: April 3\, 2023 – April 8\, 2023\nLocation: 3423 Holmead Place\, NW\, Washington\, DC 20010\nEvent fee: Free\nRegistration Event link: https://studioactingconservatory.org/about \nFor More Information\nContact: Emily Morrison\nWebsite: humanitiesdc.org\nEmail: info@studioactingconservatory.org\nPhone: 202 – 232 – 0714
