The Museum of Science and Industry is hosting its 50th installation of the Juried Art Exhibition, a celebration of Black Creativity through the visual arts.

The goal is “to inspire African-American children to pursue educational opportunities and careers in the fields of science, technology, medicine, and engineering through programs… and discover their inventive and creative genius.”
