Though made between the 1960s and 1980s, the textiles in this exhibition have antecedents that date to the 11th century.

The show illustrates the complex and timeless value of woven cloth in this region, by exploring weaving techniques, designs, and symbols in conjunction with the rich trade history and cultural role of cloth in the Sahel.
