Exhibit location: Brown v. Board of Education National Historic Site, 1515 Monroe St, Topeka, KS, 66612.
“The story of Brown v. Board of Education, which ended legal segregation in public schools, is one of hope and courage. When the people agreed to be plaintiffs in the case, they never knew they would change history. The people who make up this story were ordinary people. They were teachers, secretaries, welders, ministers and students who simply wanted to be treated equally.”

The church dates from the 12th century onwards and was restored in the late 19th and early 20th century.
There is no record of a church in the Domesday book, but a Norman church certainly existed.
It is a cruciform church with nave, chancel, north and south aisles, north and south transepts and crossing tower.
A major rebuilt resulted in a church with steep pitched roofs, low central tower and possibly aisles, took place around 1230.
There was further rebuilding around 100 years later.
The nave, which dates from the 14th century, is of three bays and of lofty proportion. It is twice the length of the chancel, and the width of nave and aisles is half its length. The west window is contemporary. The scar of the old Early English roof line can be seen on the east end of the nave.
The two-stage tower was originally built for the 13th century chancel and nave, and has an embattled parapet with six crocketted pinnacles.
Considerable repair work seems to have been done the south transept in the early 18th century, and the wooden vaulting under the tower dates from after 1848.
There is an octagonal font of the Decorated period with ball flower and four-leaf flowers in high relief.
There is a 13th century effigy of a lady at the north-west end of the nave, Nicholaa de Camville.
The fittings include a good collection of 14th century poppy-head bench ends, and parts of a 14th century screen have been reused in the south transept, otherwise the woodwork is 19th-century.

The Greenbrier dates back to 1778, attracting guest to the natural mineral springs and the surrounding natural environment. The main building, a combination of Classical Revival and Federal architectural styles, was built in 1913. For most of its history, the hotel and surrounding 10,000 acres was owned by the Chesapeake & Ohio Railway and its successors, the CSX Corporation. Following years of heavy losses, CSX placed the hotel into bankruptcy in 2009. The Justice Family Group, a company owned by Jim Justice, subsequently bought the property and guaranteed all debts, resulting in dismissal of the bankruptcy.
The Greenbrier has an interesting history in war and politics. During World War II, the federal government took over the hotel and used it as a place of interment for German and Japanese diplomats. During the Cold War era, Greenbrier was the site of a massive underground bunker that would serve as a relocation center for the Congress. The bunker was decommissioned in 1992.
The Greenbrier is a National Historic Landmark and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Gruyères dates back to the Roman era with graves dated to the second century and the remains of a Roman villa was discovered dating back to the second or third century. The first written reference to the town is from 1138-39. In the late twelfth century, the town developed as a market town separate from the castle. In 1476, the town took part in the Battle of Morat and captured three capes of the Order of the Golden Fleece and these were on display in the castle.
Today the city is an agricultural and forestry centre and Gruyère cheese is named for the town.

Join us to celebrate the opening of Raise a Glass—A Contemporary Response to Animal-Shaped Vessels from the Ancient World, an exhibition at the Harvard Ceramics Program that is inspired by the Harvard Art Museums’ current special exhibition, Animal-Shaped Vessels from the Ancient World: Feasting with Gods, Heroes, and Kings.
On view from October 13 through November 26, 2018, Raise a Glass features contemporary ceramic artists responding to the elaborate vessels featured in the Animal-Shaped Vessels exhibition. Fourteen internationally recognized contemporary sculptors and vessel makers were invited to seek inspiration in subject matter, form, function and/or culture of origin from these ancient vessels, which illustrate how shapes, artistic forms, ideas, and traditions have exchanged across borders throughout time.
During the opening reception, the public will have the chance to enrich their viewing experience through a hands-on encounter with materials and process. Artists from the Harvard Ceramics Program will demonstrate the use of ceramic press molds developed for research purposes for Harvard Art Museums curators. Participants will be invited to try press molding their own terracotta animal-head drinking vessels.
The intent of Raise a Glass is for artists to work with the time-honored materials of ceramic, metal, and glass to honor and provide a complementary view into the mind of ancient makers represented in the Harvard Art Museums exhibition.
Included artists:
Natalia Arbelaezhands sculpting an animal head in clay
Bruce Armitage
Jessica Brandl
John Byrd
Pattie Chalmers
Richard W. James
Salvador Jimenez-Flores
Kate MacDowell
Jenny Mendes
Mia Riley

Raise a Glass is curated by Kathy King, Director of Education at the Ceramics Program and is co-sponsored by the Harvard Ceramics Program and the Harvard Art Museums, in conjunction with Animal-Shaped Vessels from the Ancient World: Feasting with Gods, Heroes and Kings, on view at the Harvard Art Museums from September 7, 2018 through January 6, 2019.
This opening reception and public demonstration will take place at the Harvard Ceramics Program, 224 Western Avenue, Allston.
Support for this event—as well as crucial support for the exhibition—has been provided by the National Endowment for the Humanities: Exploring the Human Endeavor. In addition, the Harvard Art Museums are deeply grateful to the anonymous donor of a gift in memory of Melvin R. Seiden and to Malcolm H. Wiener (Harvard A.B. ’57, J.D. ’63) and Michael and Helen Lehmann for enabling us to mount this exhibition and to pursue the related research. This work was also made possible in part by the following endowed funds: the David M. Robinson Fund; the Andrew W. Mellon Publication Funds, including the Henry P. McIlhenny Fund; and the M. Victor Leventritt Fund, which brings outstanding scholars of the history and theory of art to the Harvard and Greater Boston communities through the generosity of the wife, children, and friends of the late M. Victor Leventritt, Harvard Class of 1935.
