Senior Moments, Darien Library’s monthly coffee and conversation program designed specifically for seniors, takes a field trip to The Bruce Museum for a guided tour of their new exhibit, “And Still We Rise: Race, Culture, and Visual Conversations” on Tuesday, January 26th from 2 to 3 p.m.
Using the powerful medium of story quilts, this exhibition narrates nearly four centuries of African American history, from the first slave ships to the first African American president and beyond. Through 40 quilts from artists of the Women of Color Quilters Network, the exhibition reveals the stories of freedom’s heroes, ranging from Phillis Wheatley to Frederick Douglass to the Tuskegee Airmen.
