Members' Program: Race Stories at UMBC

UMBC Center for Art, Design and Visual Culture (CADVC)

(Depart from The Central Presbyterian Church, 7308 York Road, Towson)

This event celebrates the launch of a book of essays by Dr. Maurice Berger, former Research Curator at CADVC (until his tragic early passing in 2020). The event will include offerings from his widower, Dr. Marvin Heiferman (editor of the volume), as well as Lowery Stokes Sims, Maleke Glee, Aruna D'Souza, and others to be announced. This event will also form the launch of two key activities related to Dr. Berger's legacy at CADVC: the relaunch of a publication series and the launch of an endowment to fund programs in his honor. The backdrop for the event will be the exhibition Levester Williams: all matters aside. Charter bus service will be provided. For those who choose to self-drive, this program begins at 3:15 pm and ends at 5:30 pm.

Members-only, registration required (limited to 37 people); $50 event fee (includes donation to UMBC CADVC). Register online here: https://www.artseminargroup.org/online-payment/registration
