  • Havre de Grace Maritime Museum 100 Lafayette Street Havre de Grace, MD, 21078 United States (map)

Join us for a one-hour lecture about our permanent exhibit on the Underground Railroad in the greater

Upper Chesapeake Bay region. The National Park Service recently designated the Havre de Grace

Maritime Museum’s exhibit, Underground Railroad: Other Voices of Freedom, as a National

Underground Network to Freedom site.

Learn about the artists who created the powerful original artwork in The Underground Railroad: Other

Voices of Freedom exhibit at the Havre de Grace Maritime Museum. Leslie Kaufman, art curator and

President of Philadelphia Sculptors, will illuminate the process of selecting artists, their personal

connections to the subject matter, and the special creative techniques they used. Art is a critical part of

this important exhibit.
