California African-American Museum (CAAM)<br />

In conjunction with Black History Month, the Osher Lifelong<br />

Learning Institute (<strong>OLLI</strong>) takes its annual field trip to the California<br />

African-American Museum where we will have a docent-led tour<br />

of current exhibits. The tour will take 45 minutes to one hour,<br />

and will cover the following three exhibits:<br />

Los Angeles Freedom Rally, 1963<br />

On May 26, 1963, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. addressed nearly<br />

40,000 people at the Wrigley Field in South Los Angeles. Coined<br />

the “Los Angeles Freedom Rally”, it was one of the largest civil<br />

rights rallies in the country, predating the famous 1963 March on<br />

Washington by three months.<br />

The Notion of Family<br />

The Notion of Family, Art works from the nineteenth to the twentyfirst<br />

centuries chart a trajectory of African American family and<br />

togetherness over the generations.<br />

Robert Pruitt: Devotion<br />

Through drawing, sculpture, animation, and photography, the<br />

artist illuminates the connection between spiritual, fictional, and<br />

technology and investigates how black identity can reside at the<br />

intersection of<br />

these arenas.<br />

The Museum will<br />

treat the group to<br />

a workshop having<br />

to do with the<br />

current exhibits.<br />
