Welcome to AFRICA: One Continent. Many Worlds.
Discover firsthand the vitality and significance of African peoples, their communities through out the world, and the natural riches of the African Continent.
Your journey begins here with the "AFRICA: One Continent. Many Worlds." web site and culminates with a memorable visit to the "AFRICA: One Continent. Many Worlds." traveling exhibition now touring the U.S.
The "AFRICA: One Continent. Many Worlds." web site is designed to provide the museum-goer with a rich experience and to provide the educator with the knowledge and tools to bring the experience to the classroom.
The on-line exhibit includes over 60 minutes of video, hundreds of photographs of cultural objects from the African collections of the Field Museum of Natural History and Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County, and presentations on the accomplishments and stories of Americans of African descent.
You will also find exhibitions of art and photography found no where else on the web.
The "AFRICA: One Continent. Many Worlds." web site is a collaborative project between The Field Museum, the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County, the California African American Museum and the Armory Center for the Arts.
