Join us for a closing reception for the Lafayette Exhibition.Gallery Exhibit:
August 28, 2024 through October 13, 2024
This presentation highlights Lafayette’s Revolutionary War contributions and his association with Washington and the Continental Army’s leadership. The affection of Americans for the Marquis is examined through collectibles, memorabilia associated
with Lafayette and artwork that memorializes his life and associations.
In conjunction with the Lafayette Exhibition, the Havre de Grace Arts Collective will host “Cultural Agitators,” a curated art show of original art that highlights other agents of change and cultural agitators in the spirit of Lafayette.
Submissions have been solicited from any visual artist whose work explores “Cultural Agitators,” either as individuals or as a concept.
Cultural Agitators is a collaboration between The Havre de Grace Arts Collective (Gallery 220), the Historic Havre de Grace Foundation, the Greater Havre de Grace Museum Association, Lafayette Farewell Tour 2024/2025, and the private collection of Mark VerValin and Dr. John W. Hawkins with the intentions to celebrate the bicentennial of Lafayette's farewell tour.
The exhibitions and art show will be a conversation between history and art. Historical artifacts with ties to Lafayette and art work reflecting what it means to be a Cultural Agitator will be on display throughout the gallery.
