Fellow Talladegans and friends,
Isn’t it great when reality exceeds expectations? That was my experience as I joined many of you last month for the opening of the Dr. William R. Harvey Museum of Art. Although I had seen renderings of the structure and the proposed galleries, I was totally unprepared for the experience of seeing the Amistad Murals hanging in their new permanent home. The facility and the art are truly Dega treasures. A video of the event, produced by Dr. Eugene Cain, can be viewed by clicking on the button below.
Dr. James is the 2019 recipient of the Society’s Kenneth Rothman Career Accomplishment Award.
