"Mildred Thompson: The Atlanta Years, 1986 –2003" opened with a roundtable conversation on the impact of her work and presence on September 11, 2019. Later that evening, we recorded a live segment inside the Museum where the community was invited to share reflections on Thompson as an artist, friend, mentor, inspiration, and/or colleague.
