About this Event

“Beyond Boundaries: The Sculpture of Alice Wesley Ivory” recounts her story and legacy in an exhibit sponsored by the Albemarle Charlottesville Historical Society in cooperation with the Contemporary Gallery at Jefferson School African American Heritage Center. The exhibit provides an opportunity for new generations to learn about the life and times of this pioneering artist.

The exhibit runs through December 14, open to school classes as well as other groups and individuals. Group tours should contact Jefferson School. The gallery is open Tuesday-Friday 1-6; Saturday, 10-12. To reach teachers in public and private schools, ACHS worked with New American History to create a learning resource website: https://resources.newamericanhistory.org/alice-ivory-breaking-boundaries

This exhibit was made possible through the generosity of the Joseph and Robert Cornell Memorial Foundation, the Mental Health Fund of the Charlottesville Area Community Foundation, the Charles Fund, Jefferson School African American Heritage Center Annual Fund and individual donors. The exhibit was collected, researched, and written by the Albemarle Charlottesville Historical Society. It was professionally mounted by Andrea Douglas, curator of the Contemporary Gallery.
