The Studio Museum opens with a Tom Lloyd solo show in an 8,700-square-foot loft on Fifth Avenue. But not all the festivities go as planned—one visitor breaks a sculpture.
Charles Inniss, the museum’s first director, resigns as the local community continues to decry the museum for being out of touch with what Harlemites want. Edward S. Spriggs is brought on two months later to replace him. A group show organized by artist William T. Williams opens to controversy over its inclusion of Steven Kelsey, a white artist, an...
Spriggs departs. His replacement comes from outside the art world: Courtney Callender, who had worked at the New York City Parks Department and campaigned to keep the museum in Harlem.
Mary Schmidt Campbell becomes the first female director of the Studio Museum. Since then, the museum has been led exclusively by women.
The museum faces a lawsuit over the James VanDerZee archive, with the artist alleging he wasn’t properly compensated when the museum became custodian of it.
The museum moves into its first permanent home, in a building on 125th Street renovated under the direction of J. Max Bond Jr. Five years later, it expands into an adjacent vacant lot.
“Tradition and Conflict: Images of a Turbulent Decade 1963–1973” opens, an exhibition that is considered a key survey of how Black art was inspired or affected by the civil rights movement.
Campbell steps down as director, and Kinshasha Holman Conwill, previously deputy director, takes the top role.
Works from the Studio Museum’s vaunted collection travel to 10 museums across the country in the exhibition “25 Years of African-American Art.”
Lowery Stokes Sims, a Metropolitan Museum of Art curator, becomes director of the Studio Museum after Conwill steps down.
