- **Event Description**: February 29-March 31, 2020--“Reflections of The Black Experience,” an art collection curated by Kinya Christian, is reflective of the African diaspora to the modern-day Black experience in America by local and regional artists: Brian Elenbarger, Marzelle Williams, Gregory Janicke, Nick Palmer, and Leona Hunter-Wade, and others. The exhibit features visual excerpts of the ground-breaking 1619 Project lead by Nikole Hannah-Jones with The New York Times, and an artist talk-back event at The Rogers Historical Museum.

The public is invited to experience this opportunity to connect with elements of The 1619 project in NW Arkansas. The 1619 Project is a New York Times Magazine interactive project lead by award-winning investigative reporter Nikole Hannah-Jones, with contributions by the paper's writers, including essays, poems, short fiction, and a photo essay, is described as, “an ongoing initiative that began in August 2019, the 400th anniversary of the beginning of American slavery. It aims to reframe the country’s history by placing the consequences of slavery and the contributions of black Americans at the very center of our national narrative.” Originally conceived as a special issue for August 20, 2019, it was soon turned into a full-fledged project, including coverage in the newspaper and on its websites, and into an educational curriculum with The Pulitzer Center. 

This exhibit provides patrons with a meaningful opportunity to connect with people throughout our community. #Diversity #Art #History
