Thank you, Durham, Duke and North Carolina!
Listen, 9th Wonder was a whole VIBE at the Nasher Museum this afternoon. The vibe I had no idea I needed and was so very appreciated!!

Scenes from the day
We loved celebrating the 30 artists in our exhibition Reckoning & Resilience: North Carolina Art Now on Sunday! Grammy Award-winning producer 9th Wonder and DJ Khrysis brought the people to the dance floor in our Sculpture Garden. Inside the museum, visitors of all ages made art. And many of the artists brought friends and families.
