Panel moderated by Shaka Myrick, the inaugural two-year Romare Bearden Graduate Museum Fellow, with artists Summer Brooks, Jada Patterson, and Joann Quiñones

This virtual program will take place via Zoom and will include opportunities for participants to ask questions with the Q&A feature. Attendees’ mics and cameras will not be activated. This event will have automated closed captions.

Attendees must register to receive the Zoom link. Capacity for the live program is limited.

A closed-captioned recording of the program will be available on the Museum’s YouTube channel and website in the weeks following.
