In Paintings and Quilts, Stephen Towns Spotlights Black Leisure in the Jim Crow South
Briefly

"Black people had to set up their own spaces in order to find recreation and to find peace. This show is a way of illuminating that."
"Towns' paintings portray groups of children swimming, sunbathing, and playing on the sandy shoreline, reflecting the joy and community found in segregated spaces."
