The opening exhibit in the Northwest Gallery features the work and lives of two artists who profoundly reshaped our region's cultural landscape, Jacob Lawrence and James W. Washington Jr. This exhibition is as personal as any story that attempts to relate the meaning of a life to a community. The artwork and objects here reveal the interests and passions of two artists who were central in helping us understand the power of creativity. They lived among us not as mythic characters but as neighbors and friends and they left human tracks.
Admission: Free admission on the first Thursday of every month.
