About the Event
What is victory? This is a question posed in the painting Mr. Prejudice created by the artist Horace Pippin. Pippin experienced how African American soldiers fighting in World War I and World War II faced discrimination when they returned from battle. This inspired a fight not just abroad, but also at home. In this program, students will use Pippin’s self-taught art techniques to decide how they see American victory.
This program is designed for students of Middle School age. This program is free and open to the public.
