SUMMARY:The Jazz Age Gala - Postponed
DESCRIPTION:NEW COVID-19 Update: The Jazz Age GALA has been postponed. For more information contact: jasmin.alston@lewismuseum.org \nOn October 23\, the Lewis Museum will open the season with the black-tie event we have all been waiting for. The Jazz Age Gala will deliver an exciting evening of entertainment created for your enjoyment. It will be a feast for the senses! \n \n  \n  \n  \nWhere: The Lewis Museum\n830 E. Pratt Street  \nTime: 7-11 PM  \nAttire: Black Tie \nIndividual tickets available September 7\, 2021 \nTHE JAZZ AGE\nThe Jazz Age was a cultural period and movement that took place in America during the 1920s from which new styles of music\, dance and art deco architecture were born. The birth of jazz music is credited to African Americans who migrated from New Orleans to major northern cities leading to a wider dispersal of jazz as different styles.  \nTake Aways: \n\nThe Jazz Age was a post-World War I movement in the 1920s from which jazz music and dance emerged. \nFemale singers such as Bessie Smith emerged during this period of postwar equality\, paving the way for future female artists\nThe Roaring Twenties and the Jazz Age were personified by unconventional clothing and progressive attitude by woman. \nThe birth of jazz music is credited to African Americans\, but both black and white Americans alike are responsible for its immense rise in popularity.\nThe rise of jazz coincided with the rise of radio broadcast and recording technology\, which spawned the popular “potter palm” shows that included big-band jazz performances.\n\n

SUMMARY:Unmarked Film Screening and Discussion - In Person Event
DESCRIPTION:  \nProgram begins at 1 pm. \nMuch of America’s rich history is being lost to time. In the South\, vast amounts of African-American grave sites and burial grounds for enslaved persons have been disappearing over the years. In Virginia alone\, stories of thousands at rest could vanish from history altogether if these locations are not restored. Those with personal connections to these burial sites have recently begun to uncover and maintain locations across the state. However\, there is much work to be done in order to preserve this part of America’s history. Unmarked not only explores these untold stories of the past but also the efforts underway to preserve them. \nJoin Co-Director and Archival Expert Chris Haley for a film screening of Unmarked (40 minutes) followed with a post discussion.  Chris Haley is the Director of the Study of the Legacy of Slavery at the Maryland State Archives Research Department. Unmarked Film Trailer \n  \nIf you would like to register for this event\, but would prefer to pay in-person\, please contact the Visitor Services Desk (443) 263 – 1875. To Pay Online\, CLICK HERE. \nIn conjunction with Bodies of Information: Understanding Slavery through the Stearns Collection.

SUMMARY:Bodies of Information: Understanding Slavery through the Stearns Collection
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition Opening Weekend:  \nBodies of Information: Understanding Slavery through the Stearns Collection \nOctober 1\, 2021 – January 4\, 2022 \nBodies of Information: Understanding Slavery through the Stearns Collection explores how archives help us tell nuanced stories of slavery. The exhibit features select items from the Stearns Collection\, an 87-piece collection spanning more than 100 years\, painstakingly collected by Herbert Stearns. Through this exhibit we can examine how people – from researchers\, educators\, and historians to students and family genealogists – use documents to confront the complicated role that slavery played in American life. By looking closely at the newspapers\, images\, ads\, and bills of sale from the period\, we see how slavery existed in every part of life in the United States. \n \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Exhibition Opening: Tell Our Story: A Tribute to Robert Houston
DESCRIPTION:Tell Our Story\, A Tribute to Robert Houston is an assemblage of photographs and photographers whose narratives are grounded in compassion and empathy yet focused on contemporary social commentary.  As a grouping\, the works share similar stories and methods chronicling a collective history. The exhibition is grounded in Houston’s sense of humanity as seen through various portraitures and expands into the photo documentation of the 1968 Poor People’s Campaign and Resurrection City where he lived for six weeks documenting the daily lives and activities he saw on the National Mall. Devin Allen and J.M. Giordano\, both Baltimore based photographers\, spent time with Houston\, discussing the importance of community\, building relationships with the subject matter\, timing and patience in crafting an image as a social statement. Their contributed images document the beauty and struggle of everyday life\, the 2018 Poor People’s Campaign: A National Call for Moral Revival\, the Freddie Gray uprising and Black Lives Matter protests in Baltimore. While not directly influenced by Robert Houston\, Dee Dwyer\, a DC photo biographer\, captures the essence and appreciation of community while weaving multi-level narratives. Her images celebrate urban life and record stories of protest and change with grace and humanity\, forwarding the legacy of the stylistic perspective of Robert Houston.

SUMMARY:Virtual Book Talk:  Annette Gordon Reed\, On Juneteenth
DESCRIPTION:Celebrate Juneteenth throughout June with virtual and onsite programming with the Lewis Museum and its community partners. More details to come. \nAnnette Gordon-Reed will be in virtual conversation with Lawrence Jackson about her new book\, On Juneteenth.  In partnership with the Enoch Pratt Library. \nIn ON JUNETEENTH\, Gordon-Reed combines her own scholarship with a personal and intimate reflection of an overlooked holiday that has suddenly taken on new significance in a post-George Floyd world. As Gordon-Reed writes\, “It is staggering that there is no date commemorating the end of slavery in the United States.” Yet\, Texas—the last state to free its slaves—has long acknowledged the moment on June 19\, 1865\, when US Major General Gordon Granger proclaimed from his headquarters in Galveston that slavery was no longer the law of the land. \nON JUNETEENTH takes us beyond the stories of Gordon-Reed’s childhood\, providing a Texan’s view of the long\, non-traditional road to a national recognition of the holiday. Gordon-Reed presents the saga of a frontier defined as much by the slave plantation owner as the mythic cowboy\, rancher\, or oilman. Reworking the “Alamo” narrative\, she shows that enslaved Blacks—in addition to Native Americans\, Anglos\, and Tejanos—formed the state’s makeup from the 1500s\, well before Africans arrived in Jamestown. A commemoration of Juneteenth and the fraught legacies of slavery that still persist\, On Juneteenth is a stark reminder that the fight for equality is ongoing. \nAnnette Gordon-Reed is the Carl M. Loeb University Professor at Harvard University. Author of the Pulitzer Prize–winning The Hemingses of Monticello: An American Family\, she lives in New York and Cambridge\, Massachusetts.   \nLawrence Jackson  is a Bloomberg Distinguished Professor of English and History at Johns Hopkins University.  He has written a memoir on race and family history called My Father’s Name: A Black Virginia Family after the Civil War. \nClick Here to Register. \n \n

SUMMARY:Black Wall Street and Beyond Series: Understanding Economic Development for Youth/The Burning: Black Wall Street and the Tulsa Massacre of 1921 - Virtual Event
DESCRIPTION:In partnership with Kaiser Permanente\, the first of three events will feature Hillary Beard\, author of the adaptation The Burning: Black Wall Street and the Tulsa Massacre of 1921. Ms. Beard will discuss her new book adaption for youth. \nThis year marks the 100th anniversary of the historical events that led to the destruction of the Greenwood community of Tulsa\, Oklahoma. Greenwood was home to a thriving commercial and residential district respectfully known as Black Wall Street. The community was home to businesses\, including grocery stores\, banks\, libraries\, and much more; one of the most affluent African-American communities in the country. The newly released book The Burning: Black Wall Street and the Tulsa Race Massacre of 1921\, tells the other story- how a generation of Black Americans just recently removed from enslavement\, built prosperous\, wealthy community of 10\,000 with its own financial institutions\, educational system\, 600 entrepreneurs\, churches\, hotels\, movie theatres\, and more. These events tell a story of how generational wealth in the Black community could’ve been built and fostered. \nThe Black Wall Street and Beyond Series will highlight the lessons learned from this once thriving and self-sufficient community and apply it to conditions of today. It will also emphasize why we must work to increase opportunities to build back wealth into Black communities and families through investing in the stock market and entrepreneurship. This series will serve as a springboard for teachers to develop follow up lesson plans to educate students about the history Black Walls Street and economic development. \nHilary Beard is an award-winning writer and an expert in book collaborations. She has partnered with many celebrities\, experts\, and public figures\, including Katherine Johnson on her book Reaching for the Moon: The Autobiography of NASA Mathematician Katherine Johnson. \n  \nSuitable for youth (12+)\, educators and general public. \n\n\nClick HERE to register.
