Museum admission can be purchased at the door.Join us for this year’s Leon Jett Memorial Lecture, honoring the legacy of Leon Jett, the Eiteljorg Museum’s public programs manager from 1999 to 2007. Leon’s passion for inclusive programming ensured that every visitor to the museum could see themselves reflected in its art, exhibitions, and events. This annual lecture continues his mission by spotlighting the often-overlooked stories of historical and contemporary African Americans in the West.This year, we are thrilled to welcome Dr. Timothy E. Nelson, a historian, author, professor, and artist. Providing the most in-depth research on Blackdom to date, he reframes the history, focusing on the economic and social ambitions of Afro-Frontierists (Black pioneers). Dr. Nelson is digitally applying his theory of colonization within the digital frontier through various art forms, including academic books, trade books, screenplays, painting, photography, and videography. https://afrofrontier.com/.A book signing will immediately follow the talk and this discussion is included with the price of admission. All Indiana college, university and trade school students receive FREE admission with their school ID. Parking is free on a first come, first served basis.
