An exhibition highlighting the legacy and cultural significance of Sepia magazine is currently on display at the African American Museum in Dallas. Titled "People Who Make the World Go 'Round: The Legacy of Sepia Magazine," the showcase features an extensive collection of more than 40,000 images from the magazine’s archives.
Sepia magazine, once a prominent publication dedicated to African American culture, history, and achievements, played a crucial role in documenting and celebrating Black life throughout its years of publication. This exhibition offers visitors an in-depth look into the magazine’s impact and the stories it brought to light.
The exhibition runs through August 11 and provides a visual narrative of the people, events, and moments that shaped the African American experience as recorded by Sepia. It serves both as a historical archive and a reflection of the magazine’s mission to present positive and authentic representations of African American communities.
Hosted by the African American Museum in Dallas, the exhibit invites attendees to engage with the rich photographic history preserved in Sepia’s extensive collection. Additional information, including visiting hours and event details, can be found on the museum’s website.
