The Benton Museum of Art is a primary visual art facility of Pomona College. It serves as museum and gallery, overseeing the college’s permanent art collections and mounting a variety of temporary contemporary exhibitions during the academic year. The Benton Museum originates lively and innovative art experiences that inspire creative and critical thinking. The Museum’s annual Project Series, inaugurated in 1999, is designed to showcase experimental or difficult-to-show works.

Grant support will go toward the exhibition catalogue and installation costs for Sadie Barnette: New Work Project Series 54. Employing her unique art practices, Barnette examines her family’s story, in particular the experiences of her father Rodney Barnette, a former Black Panther.
