Details

Join the Indiana Historical Society for a panel on how the virtuosity of Black artists in Indiana has impacted the Black experience nationwide. Poets Mari Evans and Etheridge Knight, jazz guitarist Wes Montgomery, and the monumental educational impact of the McArthur Conservatory (1946-1963) are highlighted in this panel discussion. In a state which practiced de facto segregation, the featured figures and organizations embodied an unrivaled legacy.
