In the month of June, the Banneker-Douglass Museum will be exhibiting two new temporary exhibitions. The first exhibition will display the work of local contemporary artist Cisco Davis. This exhibit has three themes; works on the American Civil Rights Movement, Cisco Davis' personal life, and selected works on the African American experience. Davis draws inspiration from artist like Rembrandt and Cal Massey. His attention to detail is influenced by the work of fashion illustrators of the 1940s and 50s.
In conjunction with the Maryland State Archives, BDM is exhibiting A Charge towards Freedom: Resistance to Slavery in Maryland. This exhibition will highlight events in Maryland surrounding the resistance and call for the end of slavery.
