Activists and Icons: The Photographs of Steve Schapiro

February 20, 2019 - October 27, 2019

A special exhibit that shows, through powerful documentary photography, that the issues of the civil rights movement are still deeply relevant today. Forty-six large-format photographs tell the stories of seminal moments in history from the March on Washington (1963) to Robert Kennedy’s presidential campaign (1968). Among the images are emotional portraits of heroes both known and unknown, ranging from Rosa Parks and James Baldwin to an unnamed sanitation striker. Exhibit runs through Oct. 27, 2019.
