About the Exhibition

"This focused on CHARACTER exhibition was inspired by the wise exhortation of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. — that character is what always matters most in any human being. Archbishop Desmond Tutu and Rosie O’Donnell were creative participants in this uplifting exhibition, filled with works by artists and visionaries from throughout history who dreamed of a world where their characters were not judged, their creative potential not limited, nor their livelihoods proscribed by factors of race, gender, ethnicity, or economic circumstance. A room devoted to the treatment of Japanese Americans unjustly interned during WW2, and the myth of race from a scientific viewpoint were shared alongside a gallery of portraits of African kings and queens by Morgan Monceau. "- Founder, Director, and Chief Curator, Rebecca Hoffberger on "Race, Class & Gender: 3 Things that Contribute “0” to CHARACTER (Because being a schmuck is an equal opportunity for everyone!)"
