Please join us on Saturday, February 22nd from 4:00 – 5:00 pm to hear Keynote speaker William Earle Williams, “The Evolution of Their Kindred Earth from Concept to Exhibition.”

Over the past forty years Williams has made sites of African American history more visible through his exquisite photographs. Mentored in the 1970s by the famed photographer Walker Evans, who had a home in Lyme, CT, Williams attended the Yale School of Art at Evans’s suggestion. As the 2023-25 Artist-in-Residence, Williams continues his journey in Connecticut, creating photographs that bring visibility and pay tribute to the unrecognized people who contributed to this society and its landscape.
