| Event Description |
Examining a major historic event, the United States’ 1876 Centennial, this exhibition looks at quilts from the era to discuss representation, socio-politics, absent voices, and unheard stories. Packed with various symbolisms and meanings, the Centennial quilts featured in "Layered Narratives" give insight into the contributions and voices of Black women and the Black community at the 1876 Philadelphia Centennial Exposition. This exhibition expands the historical lens, revealing overlooked and underrecognized stories that exist in parallel with the Centennial quilts.
