On June 20th, join Nellie Mae Rowe’s great-great-niece, Cathi Perry, for an intimate discussion about how Rowe turned a life of domestic labor shaped by segregation into one of joy and free-spirited creativity. Learn how she transformed her Vinings home into a “Playhouse” using vivid drawings, sculptures, and found-object art—an act of personal expression that established her as one of the most significant self-taught Black folk artists of the 20th century.
