Panel & Round Table | Reflections from The Land Claim Collaborators

In the Lichtenstein Theater & Livestreamed

October 29, 2021, 6 pm - 8 pm

TICKETS   LIVESTREAM

FOLLOWED BY A LIGHT RECEPTION

Spend an evening with some of the artists, historians, keepers of heritage, and advocates who generously contributed the stories and images of their families and communities to Tomashi Jackson’s The Land Claim exhibition and helped unearth many untold stories of communities of color on the East End. Join us in the Theater for an illustrated panel as they bring to life the people in the images that informed Jackson’s paintings—documenting family and community life, moments of struggle and celebration, work and everyday life, public spaces, and historical sites.
Tomashi Jackson: The Land Claim is a multipart exhibition centered on the historic and contemporary lived experiences of Indigenous, Black, and Latinx families on the East End of Long Island, on view at the Museum through November 7.
