Posted on October 9, 2018 By Editor

The exhibition “Augusta Savage: Renaissance Woman,” one of the most significant and largest organized by the Museum in its history, will open for a rare double-run through April 2019. Savage is a Green Cove Springs native who became a noted Harlem Renaissance leader, educator, artist, and catalyst for change. The exhibition at the Cummer is the largest ever assembled, from 21 national public and private lenders, dedicated to her legacy and work.

“Augusta Savage: Renaissance Woman” can be viewed and enjoyed with regular Museum admission during the exhibition dates. As always, it is free for anyone in the community on Florida Blue Free Tuesdays from 4 to 9 p.m. every Tuesday evening and again on Weaver First Saturday Free for All, held the first Saturday of each month. A full companion program and events calendar will support the exhibition. If you are interested in booking a private tour or reception, please contact the Events & Programs department at 904-899-6026.
