Design for the Art
The signature image of the ball was this collage by Rashaad Newsome. A thousand thanks for his generosity in making this possible.

The Afropolitan Ball is a massive effort by the entire staff at MoAD every year. Special accolades belong to Suzy Drell (who coordinated and directed the event), James Leventhal (who envisioned our collaboration with Rashaad Newsome), Mark Saab (who managed relationships and tech in the leadup to the event) and Kitsaun King (through whom all things are possible).
