- **Event Description**: At a time of profound social and economic change, the Florida Highwaymen dared to navigate the American Dream.

The Florida Highwaymen were 26 self-taught African American artists who began painting in the 1950s and 60s, capturing Florida’s landscapes in bold color. They sold their paintings along highways and door-to-door, creating a legacy of creativity and perseverance that helped define Florida’s visual identity. Their depictions of royal poinciana trees, marshes, and coastal sunsets not only document Florida’s natural splendor but also stand as a testament to the artists’ determination and spirit in a period of profound social change.

This exhibition, drawn from the esteemed Walker Collection, is a rare opportunity to view works by all 26 recognized Highwaymen together. The Walker Collection represents one of the most comprehensive private holdings of Highwaymen paintings in the world. Assembled with care and vision, the exhibition honors each artist’s contribution and preserves the spirit of this remarkable movement in Florida’s art history.
