21st Annual Regional Celebration of African American Artists Exhibit: Ernest C. Withers Collection, Good Night, My Love
January 17 - March 25,2023
From Texarkana Regional Arts and Humanities Council:
"Good Night, My Love, presented by the Texarkana Regional Arts and Humanities Council (TRAHC) and TRAHC's African American Committee (TAAC), features work from the iconic worldwide photojournalist Ernest C. Withers. Withers recorded African American history in the segregated South for over sixty years. His vast collection contains some of the most significant Civil Rights Movement activities. Withers' ever-present three cameras captured moments of change, conflict, classic, community, bravery, courage, determination, innocence, inspiration, and love. With the added local representation from photographer Barbara Pitts Riley, and a High School Cell Phone photography competition, this exhibition details significant history lessons with glimpses of the past, present, and future. This exhibition is sponsored in part by the Texas Commission on the Arts.
The Regional Arts Center is open Tues-Sat from 10-4. TRAHC’s visual art exhibits are FREE to the public. School and civic group tours are available upon request."
