SARATOGA SPRINGS — The Frances Young Tang Teaching Museum and Art Gallery at Skidmore College invites the public to attend a Curators’ Tour for the exhibition ‘Everforward, Neverback’ on Thursday, March 20, at noon.

The exhibition presents art from the Tang collection that reveals how the experiences of members of various ethnic and racial groups—including Black Americans, Indigenous Americans, and other people of color—can offer narratives of joy, beauty, and community as acts of resistance. ‘Everforward, Neverback’ was recently recognized by New York City-based art publication Hyperallergic as a must-see exhibition.

The tour will be led by Skidmore College Professor of American Studies Beck Krefting and three students from her fall 2024 course “Critical Whiteness in the United States.” 

Dayton Director Ian Berry will give a Curator’s Tour on Thursday, April 24, at noon of the exhibition ‘A Field of Bloom and Hum.’ All tours are free and open to the public.
