Past Events at Parish Gallery

As we progress through another historical year in the arts, I regret to inform you of the loss of a true pioneer in the African American art realm.... Dr. Jeff R. Donaldson. His passing will be felt by everyone, and his contributions as an artist will forever shine. This true legend opened many doors, which were permanently parted for many artists to follow. May his great legacy continue to enlighten. NCA and the art world mourn the death of former Dean of the College of Fine Arts at Howard University, Dr. Jeff R. Donaldson. There will be a memorial service on Friday, March 12th, 11 AM at Rankin Chapel, Howard University.
