SUMMARY:"So They Might Be Known" Exhibit Opening and Panel Discussion
DESCRIPTION:Since Hay House opened as a museum in 1964\, there has been research done but no interpretation of the lives of African Americans who worked at the house from the time of enslavement through the Civil Rights movement. The exhibit titled\, “So They Might Be Known\,” will tell their stories and fill a much-needed gap in the House’s narrative and what is shared with visitors\, preservationists\, school groups\, and more. The exhibit will provide a more inclusive and complete history of Hay House. An opening reception will be held and coincide with one of our biannual Hay Days\, a free event open to the public twice a year. The opening will also feature a panel discussion on urban slavery in Macon  with scholars Dr. Rachanice Candy Tate and Mrs. Muriel M. Jackson. Once installed\, “So They Might Be Known” will be on display indefinitely. \nThis program is supported by a grant from Georgia Humanities.

SUMMARY:Reading and Discussion of "Queen Bess"
DESCRIPTION:Join Théâtre du Rêve for a workshop presentation of Queen Bess: A Bessie Coleman Story\, a new play by Amina S. McIntyre commissioned in commemoration of the 100th anniversary of Coleman’s death (April 30\, 2026). Bessie Coleman lived in the early 1900s as a mixed-race Black and Native American woman. Due to Jim Crow restrictions and gender discrimination in the U.S.\, she earned her pilot’s license (the first ever earned by a Black woman or a Native American\, and the first international license earned by any American) by teaching herself French and then traveling to France to study. More than 100 years later\, her resourcefulness and accomplishments tell a story that continues to challenge and inspire. \nThis program is supported by a grant from Georgia Humanities. \n  \n
