African Art of the SMA Fathers | NJ

According to the New York Times, "You can count the number of American public museums devoted entirely to African art on a few fingers." As they searched them out, they uncovered a small museum in an "unorthodox in its setting: a stained-glass-windowed hall attached to a Roman Catholic church." They discovered the African Art Museum of the SMA Fathers which "yes" is rich with African Art but also and perhaps even more important, it is rich with African religious art. SMA is short for the "Society of African Missions", and the museum is located on the order's campus in Tenafly, New Jersey.
