Our city-wide celebration of the 100th anniversary of the Harlem Renaissance in Columbus continues to gain momentum. In preparation for the Columbus Museum of Art’s upcoming exhibit on the Harlem Renaissance, Good Day Columbus interviewed some key figures in the campaign to learn more.
Nannette Maciejunes, executive director of the Columbus Museum of Art, and Tripp Fontane, the spoken-word poet, represented the Harlem Renaissance campaign on Good Morning Columbus for their show on Thursday, Sept. 27, 2018.
This feature is a small taste of the wealth of experiences and moments we’ve created — and continue to create — to celebrate the anniversary of the Harlem Renaissance. In the coming weeks, we’ll release the stories of each artist who traveled from Columbus to Harlem, including the story of Tripp Fontane.
