SUMMARY:Men of Change: Power. Triumph. Truth. (February 11\, 2022 - September 11\, 2022)
DESCRIPTION:  \nNOW EXTENDED THROUGH SEPTEMBER 11th!\nMen of Change: Power. Triumph. Truth. profiles the revolutionary men—including Muhammad Ali\, James Baldwin\, Ta-Nehisi Coates\, W.E.B Du Bois\, and Kendrick Lamar—whose journeys have altered the history and culture of the country. The achievements of the men are woven within the legacy and traditions of the African American journey—achievements of excellence in spite of society’s barriers.  \nThrough literary and historic quotes\, poetry\, original works of art\, dramatic photographs\, and a dynamic space that encourages self-reflection\, this innovative exhibition weaves together the historical and the contemporary to illuminate the importance of these men within the context of rich community traditions. It invites visitors to consider predominant narratives and engage in the authentic stories of history\, politics\, art\, culture\, and activism. Twenty-four contemporary artists were invited to reflect and celebrate the significance of these ground-breaking individuals through their own creative vision. These works of art serve as counterpoint to the sumptuously backlit photographs and inspiring quotes\, and together honor the truth of the African American experience in history and today. \nWhile these men made their mark in a variety of disciplines—politics\, sports\, science\, entertainment\, business\, religion\, and more—all understood the value of asserting their own agency by owning their own stories. \nMen of Change was developed by the Smithsonian Institution Traveling Exhibition Service and made possible through the generous support of the Ford Motor Company Fund. \n\n\nPhoto credit: Kendrick Lamar\, 2018. Andrew Lih.

SUMMARY:“The Box” End of Isolation Tour - In Person

EIT will bring immersive\, transformative theater to communities across the country on the front lines of imagining a world without prison and the torture of solitary confinement. We are more than theater alone. We are a catalyst for building\, strengthening\, and knitting together communities across the country on the frontlines of ending torture and isolation. \nView Trailer Clip of Play Here \nPRICING: $20 low-income/high school and college students/seniors\, $35 sustainer\, $50 uplifter.
