From ancient temples to soaring, modern skyscrapers, Black architects have had a strong presence throughout history. On view at Seattle’s Museum of History & Industry (MOHAI) from February 4 through April 30, 2023, the traveling exhibit “From the Ground Up: Black Architects and Designers” explores the past, present, and future of architectural talent, while learning about Black pioneers in the field. The exhibit celebrates the enduring innovation and impact of Black architects across the United States, highlighting individual architects and designers from the late 1800s to today who have broken barriers formed by racism and have created spaces and places that support communities and culture with projects ranging from public housing, to places of worship, museums and universities. Visitors will recognize iconic landmarks from across the country and experience stories of people who paved the way for future generations. MOHAI is open daily 10am-5pm. Admission: Adult $22, Senior (65+) $18, Student/Military $17. Members and Youth with chaperone (14 & Under) are FREE.
