“Don’t Forget Your Lunch” Green Book History and Craft Activity
Saturday June 4, 2022, drop-in 12:00-3:00 PM
Head over to Wa Na Wari and make your own shoebox lunch container while you learn about the history of the Green Book!
Wa Na Wari’s artist in residence Perri Rhoden leads you through making an embellished shoebox lunch container. Take away knowledge of a time when African Americans packed lunches and coolers of food to take along on their travels from state to state by car, bus, or train.
Wa Na Wari is uplifting the story of The Negro Motorist Green Book and celebrating the exhibition’s final week! See this immersive Smithsonian exhibition at the Washington State History Museum in Tacoma. And hurry, the exhibition’s last day is Sunday June 12!
