Death of the Heart | Artist Talk

Join us for 'Death of the Heart: Stories of White Supremacy, Black Resistance, and Contextualizing our History', a powerful lecture, conversation, and archive activity led by Black history-based artist Jason Patterson and guest curator Thomas James.

This thought-provoking program will explore Patterson's work that highlights the Civil Rights era, Black American movements nationally, as well as on Maryland's Eastern Shore. We will also highlight acts of resistance that took place against the surging white supremacy and anti-Blackness policies implemented during that time.

Immediately following the discussion, attendees will have the opportunity to engage in an interactive artifacts activity. Attendees are encouraged to participate through bringing an artifact with them to this program, such as a photograph or object that speaks to their past.

A special thank you to Art in Public Places Commission Annapolis for sponsoring this event.
