BOOK TOUR
Venues & locations
13 APRIL 2-3pm
The Tabernacle. The Museum of Modern Art (MOMA) Machynlleth, Wales.
The official launch talk for the How Black was my Valley book will take place at MOMA Wales. Given the galleries rich association with Welsh culture and notably abstract art, there is no more fitting venue to begin our book tour. In 2024, MOMA will also mark its 40th anniversary, so we are delighted to be part of this commemoration. The artworks from the book will be featured in the gallery from March 23rd to May 11th.
