The Black Box Theater, located on the third floor of the Iowa Memorial Union, has been renovated for periodic use as a UIMA exhibition space.
The Theater most recently featured the special exhibition Graphic Language: The Art and Literature of Comics, which closed on December 11, 2011.
Public hours began on March 27, 2010 with the opening of the exhibition Two Turntables and a Microphone: Hip-hop Contexts featuring Harry Allen's "Part of the Permanent Record: Photos from the Previous Century," which ran through June 27, 2010. Since then, the Black Box Theater has housed the exhibitions Ere Ibeji: Yoruba Twin Figures from the Collection of J. Richard Simon and Lil Picard and Counterculture New York. Check back for information about upcoming exhibitions!
Admission to exhibitions at the Black Box Theater is free and open to the public.
