Alfred Ceramic Art Museum to host “Fihankra,” exhibition by Eugene Ofori Agyei, former Turner Teaching Fellow at Alfred University

The Alfred Ceramic Art Museum will host “Fihankra,” an exhibition of ceramic sculptures by Eugene Ofori Agyei, opening February 12 and running through July 19. The works, created during Agyei’s tenure as Turner Teaching Fellow at Alfred University, incorporate Adinkra symbols from Ghana’s Akan ethnic group, wooden benches, batik fabric, yarn, and found objects to explore themes of diaspora, cultural adaptation, and belonging. A reception will be held from 5 to 7 pm on opening day, and the exhibition will be accompanied by the 2026 Perkins Lecture featuring a conversation between Agyei and independent curator Larry Ossei-Mensah.
