Exhibit Opening The Radical Quad: The History of the Avery Research Center In-Person
The Radical Quad: The History of the Avery Research Center traces the formation of the Avery Research Center for African American History and Culture from its roots as the Avery Normal Institute, the work of the Avery Institute of Afro American History and Culture to preserve 125 Bull Street, to its present role as an archive and research center of African American history. The exhibition highlights the vision and leadership of its directors, whose work transformed the Avery Research Center into a vital site of preservation, scholarship, and community engagement. Through photographs, documents, and artwork, Radical Quad explores how the Avery Research Center has fostered a liberatory legacy through its pillars: archive, library, community hub, and museum collections.
