Explore the Spirit of African Art – “Sacred Currents” Exhibition at Lake Wales Arts Council

This fall, discover the powerful connection between art and spirituality at the Lake Wales Arts Council with Sacred Currents: Spirituality in African Art. Curated from the private collection of educator and art collector Daniel Jones, this inspiring exhibit features stunning masks, textiles, and sculptures used in rituals, protection, and remembrance across African cultures.

Sacred Currents invites you to experience how African communities express their spiritual beliefs through art—past and present. You’ll learn how these beautiful objects play important roles in ceremonies, honor ancestors, and protect against negative forces.

Don’t miss this unique chance to see traditional and modern African art up close. It’s an eye-opening exhibit that brings history, culture, and creativity together in a meaningful way.
