This exhibition takes its name from a 1943 painting by Jacob Lawrence that honors the library’s active role in providing free education for all. In celebration of Black History Month, the selection focuses on the work of African American artists.

A wide range of resources accessible through the Art Department of the Parkway Central library is on display, including archival material from its research files, books from its vault and periodicals from the collections stored offsite, in the Regional Operations Center.
