Augusta Savage (1892-1962) provided a blueprint for the Harlem community members she tirelessly worked with and for, the artists she mentored, and the youth she taught throughout her lifetime. Guest Curator, Dr. Jeffreen Hayes, will highlight specific creative strategies Savage instituted to navigate the art world that can be used in the contemporary moment to affect change and build community.

Dr. Hayes will also be signing copies of her book, Augusta Savage: Renaissance Woman, following her lecture.  Books will be available for purchase in the Cummer Shop.

Registration required.  All reservations are will call only.  Check in will be in the Cummer Museum Lobby.
