W.W. Law Exhibit

This exhibit, through a partnership with the Live Oak Public Libraries, features a selection of linocut prints by Chicago artist Margaret T. Burroughs (1915-2010). Like W. W. Law, Burroughs worked to preserve and share African American art, culture and history as co-founder of the DuSable Museum of African American History in Chicago. Burroughs was an artist, poet, educator, advocate, and activist for the art community and the African American community in Chicago. While she worked in many mediums, she is best known as a skilled printmaker, using the medium to communicate positive images of African American history and culture.
