SUMMARY:Hew Locke: Passages at Yale Center for British Art
DESCRIPTION:The Yale Center for British Art presents Hew Locke: Passages\, an exhibition tracing more than three decades of work by Guyanese-British artist Hew Locke. Known for his layered\, richly textured approach described as a “postcolonial baroque\,” Locke employs sculpture\, photography\, drawing\, and found objects to challenge and reimagine the visual codes of imperialism. \nOn view from Thursday\, October 2\, 2025\, through Sunday\, January 11\, 2026\, in the second-floor galleries\, the exhibition spans Locke’s career from the late 1990s to today. It highlights recurring themes such as portraiture\, public statuary\, ships\, boats\, and architecture\, while exploring the lasting effects of colonialism and the legacies of global capitalism\, migration\, and diaspora. \nLocke\, born in Edinburgh in 1959 and raised in Guyana before returning to Britain in 1980\, draws from both his British and Guyanese heritage to create works that fuse vernacular and formal traditions. His practice reflects a dynamic engagement with history and contemporary society through innovative use of material and form. \nAdmission to the exhibition is free. The Yale Center for British Art is located at 1080 Chapel Street\, New Haven\, CT 06510.

SUMMARY:Lunch and Learn – A Silent Revolution: The Mysterious Demise of Slavery in Revolutionary Connecticut
DESCRIPTION:This virtual Lunch and Learn program explores how slavery began to unravel in Connecticut during the American Revolution through the actions of enslaved people themselves. Historian William Morgan presents research drawn from the Connecticut Museum of Culture and History’s Waterman Research Center\, examining how Black individuals created opportunities for freedom during the 1770s and 1780s and quietly undermined slavery at its height. The talk sheds light on the emergence of Connecticut’s first significant free Black population and challenges the idea that legislation alone ended bondage in the state. \nThe virtual presentation takes place on January 6\, 2026\, from 12:00 pm to 1:00 pm and is free and open to the public. Registration is required to receive the Zoom link. William Morgan is a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of History at Indiana University\, Bloomington\, where his work focuses on the origins and legacy of emancipation and abolition in Revolutionary New England. \nQuestions about the program can be directed to Jen Busa\, Public Programs Coordinator\, at jbusa@connecticutmuseum.org.
