Robinson was clear that she wanted her home maintained as a place for artists’ research, inspiration, and creativity. In 2017, a committee of community advisors met and voted unanimously to renovate the house and establish it as an artist/scholar residency. In 2020, CMA and Greater Columbus Arts Council formed a partnership to support an annual resident selected from a national pool of African American artists and a fellow selected from a local pool of African American artists to live and/or work in Robinson’s home studio, receive an award, and an opportunity to present their art in the Columbus community. In 2022, CMA instituted the Aminah Robinson Residency Program for African American writers, scholars, and researchers to honor Robinson’s strong research and writing legacy. – Columbus Museum of Art
