Meghan Markle and Prince Harry recently hosted a star-studded event to celebrate the arts.

The Duke, 39, and Duchess, 42, of Sussex shared a press release on their official website this week detailing their involvement with The Kinsey African American Art and History Collection.

According to the release, the collection is known for having “one of the most extensive holdings of African American art, artifacts, and documents.”

In an Instagram post on Tuesday, The Kinsey Collection shared photos of the March 21 gathering, which was held at Sofi Stadium at Hollywood Park.

Carousel images showed Meghan and Harry embracing attendees, as well as “a moderated conversation with Bernard, Shirley and Khalil Kinsey, trailblazers in the art and philanthropy community who have dedicated their lives to uplifting and celebrating prolific art and culture in the context of Black America.”

The Role Play actor, 48, has a leadership scholarship in his name in Nigeria in which he provides tuition to students. Last year, Meghan and Harry’s Archewell Foundation announced the donation of school supplies and menstrual products to assist through a partnership with The GEANCO Foundation.

As the pictures continued, Meghan’s mother, Doria Ragland, was photographed with Beyoncé’s mother, Tina Knowles.

The Cowboy Carter artist, 42, and her husband JAY-Z, 54, have been tied to Meghan since their February 2019 Brit Awards acceptance speech. Meghan and Harry reunited with the moguls that July for the London premiere of The Lion King — which stars the “Jolene” singer.

More recently, Meghan, Harry, and Ragland, 67, hung out when Queen Bey’s Renaissance World Tour made stops at Los Angeles’ SoFi Stadium in September 2023.

The trio was spotted watching the concert from a private box overlooking the stadium — all wearing silver, a special request from Beyoncé herself.

Meghan and Ragland returned for a second night for a mother-daughter night out without Harry.
