SUMMARY:A Movement in Every Direction: Legacies of the Great Migration
DESCRIPTION:A Movement in Every Direction: Legacies of the Great Migration explores the profound impact of the Great Migration on the social and cultural life of the United States from historical and personal perspectives. Co-organized with the Baltimore Museum of Art\, the exhibition features newly commissioned works by 12 acclaimed Black artists across a variety of media. The Great Migration (1915-1970) saw more than six million Black Americans leave the South for cities across the United States. Informed by research\, explorations\, and conversations\, the artists’ works explore themes of perseverance\, self-determination\, and self-reliance\, along with the impacts this historical phenomenon continues to have today.

SUMMARY:"Voices and Votes" in Pascagoula
DESCRIPTION:The Pascagoula High School Performing Arts Center will host Voices and Votes: Democracy in America\, a Smithsonian traveling exhibition\, from August 23 until September 20. \nVoices and Votes is a traveling exhibit offered by the Museum on Main Street division of the Smithsonian Institution. It consists of six free-standing display units incorporating photographs\, text\, and numerous interactive elements. Requiring a minimum of 650 sq. ft.\, the exhibit is designed for smaller venues to achieve Museum on Main Street’s goal of bringing the Smithsonian to small town America. The exhibit is free and open to the public to visit. \nVoices and Votes: Democracy in America traces the bold American experiment of a government run by and for the people. The exhibit examines the influences that shaped the early days of American democracy and the changes that have occurred in the nearly 250 years since. \nDemocracy is a form of government that requires civic engagement and participation. It is formed by citizens’ responses to ongoing questions: What are the rights and responsibilities of citizens? What is the role of the government in American life? How do citizens participate in democracy? Beginning with the American Revolution\, this exhibition explores these questions and more. \nIn addition to hosting the exhibit\, the Performing Arts Center will also host a series of programs that are free and open to the public. \nVoices and Votes events in Pascagoula: \n\nAugust 23rd\, 6:00pm – Grand Opening\, sponsored by Jackson County Chamber of CommerceGuest Speaker:  Representative Jeremey Anderson\, Mississippi House District 110 \nAugust 30th\, 6:00pm – Poetry Night\, featuring poets and poetry focused on voting rights in America \n\n\nSeptember 6th\, 6:00pm – Pascagoula Negro/Carver High and Magnolia Monarchs Alumni Night: A panel of alumni from Pascagoula Negro/Carver High School and Magnolia High School\, discussing their past voting experiences. \n\n\nSeptember 20th\, 6:00pm – Student Night: Featuring essay and art contest award winners\, as well as the Pascagoula High School and Gautier High School Choirs and Theatre Departments performances \n\n\nSeptember 21st\, 9:30am – Presentation from Voices and Votes state scholar Dr. Rebecca Tuuri\, “Democracy in Mississippi: Race\, Violence and Power in the Struggle for the Vote”

SUMMARY:Will Eisner & The History of the Graphic Novel
DESCRIPTION:Drop by the library between September 14th and October 22nd to participate in this comic book/graphic novel celebration. The Will Eisner and the History of the Graphic Novel exhibit will\nexplore the format through art\, literature\, film and conversation. Comic books and graphic novels assemble words and art into a dual language unlike anything else in the publishing world. Despite this unique form of dialogue\, the genre has not always been embraced by the literary and art worlds as a medium worthy of prestige. The exhibit will showcase the rich history of this format and dispel that notion. On Monday\, September 26th\, Dr. Stacy Creel will further discuss that history and give context to the exhibit. She earned her Ph.D. in Information Science from the University of North Texas at Denton and is currently the Director of the School of Library and Information Science at The University of Southern Mississippi.
