Through Their Eyes: Contemporary Artwork in the Underground Railroad Exhibit Lecture
September 22 @ 3:00 pm - 4:00 pm
Join the Havre de Grace Maritime Museum for a lecture series detailing our permanent exhibit on the Underground Railroad in the greater Upper Chesapeake Bay region, as well as new research on the history and experience of Black watermen for a future update on our current “Working on the Bay” exhibit. Admission to the lecture series is free to the public.
Learn about the artists who created the powerful original artwork in The Underground Railroad: Other Voices of Freedom exhibit at the Havre de Grace Maritime Museum. Leslie Kaufman, art curator and President of Philadelphia Sculptors, will illuminate the process of selecting artists, their personal connections to the subject matter, and the special creative techniques they used. Art is a critical part of this important exhibit.
