Join us at RedLine for an artist and curator talk and exhibition tour. Featuring curators and artists of the two exhibitions currently on display: Floyd D. Tunson’s "Ascent" and the Black Power Tarot.

Collaborative curators Wylene Carol, Daisy McGowan, and Collin Parson will lead a tour and discuss 10 major series of artworks by Floyd D. Tunson in his survey exhibition Ascent at RedLine Contemporary Art Center.

The talk will include curator Daisy McGowanin and civil rights legend John B. Smith, whose work with the Invaders Black Power group in Memphis, Tennessee, inspired the exhibition concept.
