Join the Haitian American Museum of Chicago and Crossing Borders Music for the one-day outdoor exhibition "We Walk: A Celebration of Black Community." "We Walk" was created in 2020 by the Haitian American Museum of Chicago who invited Crossing Borders Music’s participation in this ongoing, uplifting project.
This community exhibition highlights the excellence and contributions of Black America in the local community and beyond. It will feature scholar Dr. Cranston Knight, scholar Dr. Edward Davis, entrepreneur Brian Osborne, artist Lowell Thompson and more with interactive exhibits on Black internationalism, Black history, Black artists, food, and more!
Plus, the event includes a live Crossing Borders Music concert of music by Black composers at 2 p.m. with guest artist Kailie Holliday, featuring music commissioned for this program by The Honourable Elizabeth A. Baker, Jessica T. Carter, and Jordyn Davis in honor of Juneteenth and the ongoing African-American journey from slavery to justice.
