Final Weeks! A Movement in Every Direction Closes January 29

The Great Migration is a history of movement, connection, goodbyes, and return. Millions of Black Americans dispersed from southern states throughout the 20th century, leaving memories along the path while redefining the American landscape.

A Movement in Every Direction: Legacies of the Great Migration illuminates the stories of this unprecedented phenomenon through the work of 12 artists. We invite you to see their work and reflect on your own family ancestry and migration stories before the exhibition closes on Sunday, January 29.

Get tickets, schedule a free docent-led tour, and mark your calendar for free admission this Sunday, January 8.
