SUMMARY:Looking Back to the Future: Realizing the “Afric-American Picture Gallery”
DESCRIPTION:Almost Unknown\, the Afric-American Picture Gallery brings to life William J. Wilson’s 1859 fantastical essay. This symposium will explore broader approaches to how Wilson’s essay can be integrated into American history and how it connects to Henry Francis du Pont’s legacy and Winterthur’s history.  \nThe keynote speaker is Fred Wilson\, curator of Mining the Museum\, the seminal 1992 exhibition at what is now the Maryland Center for History and Culture. Wilson used that museum’s collections to confront and challenge perceptions about history\, culture\, and race\, and the installation continues to influence scholars and museum professionals today. \nJoin a diverse audience of museum professionals\, educators on the college and secondary levels\, scholars\, enthusiasts of African American history\, and the wider Wilmington community for this engaging two-day event.
