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.
