California African American Museum

Some of the artists featured in Dust My Broom: Southern Vernacular from the Permanent Collection created figures from their memories and imaginations. Robert Howell’s Critter started life as a nondescript log, until the artist turned it into a spotted creature of fantasy. John Outterbridge’s First Poet, Olivia—a tribute to his mother—imagines her ironing board as the family’s pet goat. Using materials from twigs and fabric to old containers, bring your own fantastic being to life.
