Atlanta Black Money Exhibit: Opening reception

The Black Money Exhibit features “money trees” with over 300 rare, obsolete and currently circulating paper money, as well as other money and art objects from more than 80 countries in Africa, Europe, and the Americas, depicting 10,000 years of history. The Black Money Exhibit is created by Dr. Harcourt Fuller, a history professor at Georgia State University, and a 2018-19 Fulbright Global Scholar. It is designed by artist Irvin Wheeler and curated by Tracy Murrell.

This event is free and open to the public.

The Black Money Exhibit is recognized by UNESCO as part of the International Decade for People of African Descent (2015 – 2024).
