This tour is sold out. The Reva and David Logan Center for the Arts is a multidisciplinary arts center at the University of Chicago, which provides a collaborative environment for students, faculty, and community partners to present, create and engage with the arts. Join Bill Michel, executive director of the Logan Center and artists from the Sapphire & Crystals collective for a tour of the Logan Center’s fall exhibition "Freedom’s Muse." The exhibition explores the intersection of art and freedom of expression to celebrate the 36th Anniversary of the collective and the launch of the university’s new Chicago Forum for Free Inquiry and Expression. Initially conceived by Marva Pitchford Jolly and Felicia Grant Preston, Sapphire & Crystals has brought together more than 40 African American women artists in Chicago since 1987. Exhibiting artists include Rose Blouin, Dorothy Carter, Arlene Turner Crawford, Makeba Kedem-DuBose, Juarez Hawkins, Candace Hunter, Malika Jackson, Renee Williams Jefferson, Kee Merriweather, Yaoundé Olu, Felicia Grant Preston, Patricia A. Stewart, Dorian Sylvain, Pearlie Taylor, Shahar Caren Weaver, Shyvette Williams, Trish Williams, and past members Venus Blue, Mary Reed Daniel, Pitchford Jolly, JoAnne Scott, Rene Townsend, and Anna Tyler.
