Continuing Rothko Chapel’s focus on the future of civil rights in the United States, we will gather for an inspirational evening with celebrated artist and activist Carrie Mae Weems in conversation with Houstonian and award-winning journalist Ellen Susman. We hope you can join us as they will discuss the important relationship between art and activism in addressing today’s critical social justice and equity issues. Following the program, guests are welcome to continue these conversations at their table alongside dinner by Jackson & Company.
