Join chef Jena Harris and Professor Psyche Williams-Forson for an evening of self–care grounded in the salon-style traditions of the Harlem Renaissance. Chef Jena will use accessible ingredients in a live demonstration and welcome participants to make and enjoy sustaining food and drink using recipes shared in advance. Throughout the event, we will discuss and learn more from Professor Williams-Forson about how the contributions of authors, artists, and activists to American art and politics have built movements which center radical self–love. This free, interactive program is a collaboration with The Rosenbach’s digital exhibition “I Am an American!”: The Authorship and Activism of Alice Dunbar-Nelson and the Free Library’s Making Her Mark exhibition—both of which highlight the life and legacy of Alice Dunbar–Nelson.
