Freedom-Liberty Celebration at AAMP

Starting at Franklin Square and then moving to the front plaza at the African American Museum in Philadelphia, this program features historical reenactors Carlo Campbell and Ned Hector interpreting important speeches by noted African American figures from U.S. history. Also that day, artist and educator Jihan Thomas leads a creative workshop for families inspired by the Museum special exhibition Anna Russell Jones: The Art of Design, where participants can take inspiration from African American women in the armed forces and create a portrait collage using recent and vintage images of enlisted Black Women.
