Join us each week in the Performance Pyramid— embedded within the exhibition Flight into Egypt: Black Artists and Ancient Egypt 1876–Now—to experience music, dance, and performance art that draw on ancient Egyptian themes.Assembling textiles, ceramics, and other props, Rashid Johnson collaborates with renowned spiritual jazz multi-instrumentalist Kahil El’Zabar to activate the Performance Pyramid.
