RACE: Are We So Different? opens to the public at the Muhammad Ali Center on September 24th. The highly-praised exhibit, which runs through January 2, 2017, helps visitors understand what race is and what it is not. This eye-opening interactive exhibit is the first nationally-traveling exhibition that provides a look at race from biological, cultural, and historical points of view and provides tools to recognize racial ideas and practices in contemporary American life.
From its origins in the recreational pastimes of the elite, to the increasing importance of physical fitness, to its role in athletic performance and urban style, the sneaker has been a pivotal component of dress for more than 150 years. Out of the Box: The Rise of Sneaker Culture is the first museum exhibition in the United States to feature the sneaker’s complex and fascinating design history.
