Additionally, before and during the closing reception from 4 to 8 pm CAH is excited to partner with HumanitiesDC’s Oral History Collaborative on a pop-up Story Booth in our 200 I (Eye) St. Community Room. Attendees will have the chance to share a short form story of protest or civic action from the last six decades of civil rights work. Captured stories will be archived on CAH’s website.  

Story Booth participation limit is 15 attendees. Please indicate in your RSVP if you’d like to participate.  

For reasonable accommodation requests regarding access and inclusion, please contact David Markey ([email protected]), no later than 5 business days before the start of this event.
