How do everyday objects like advertising from the 1800’s help shape ideas about race we live with today? Join guest curator Lenore Metrick-Chen for an in-depth alternative “walkthrough” of Race Making.

This event begins in the main gallery, where visitors will explore the show independently and photograph a card or artifact that resonates with them. Then we will convene upstairs in the Reading Room, to dive into the history, inscriptions, and meanings embedded in the selected cards.

Whether you're curious about media history, cultural identity, or just want to see what can be uncovered in the margins of print ephemera, this is a rare chance to hear directly from the curator and join a thoughtful, open exchange.

This event is free and all are welcome.
