Talke talks

Press day at the with the museum’s president and CEO Lisa Brown Ross, in front of their new „Legacy of Sepia Magazine“ exhibition, with beautiful photographs from the magazine featuring black American celebrities, artists, fashion and politics.

The exhibition is free to visit and open through August 11.

This is the second iteration of this format and I found it even better than the first time. The show is located at 1801 N Pearl St, right next to . Check it out if you’re in the , it’s free and open through May 24!
