June 7, 2025
Join Chicago artist Bernard Williams for this artist talk and art-making activity. Williams’s large scale sculptures and paintings are featured in the Museum’s summer exhibitions installed in Wilder Park and across the Museum’s galleries and McCormick House. Williams will discuss his varied art practice and themes concerning Black farmers and cowboys, the life of Bessie Coleman, and car sculptures. He will then lead participants in a workshop to create small cardboard sculptures of their own.
