Celebrating the Harlem Renaissance: James Reese Europe & Michael Cummings

February 2020

In celebration of the Harlem Renaissance 100 Community Celebration, we spotlight artifacts highlighting James Reese Europe's life as a composer and member of the Harlem-based 369th Infantry during WWI. Punctuating the display cases are two Jazz Quilts from Harlem-based artist Michael A. Cummings.
