Art gallery at Urbana-Champaign’s Independent Media Center showcasing works by Marilynn Dean Cleveland. Some of the 1,778 pieces that Ms. Cleveland created are included in the gallery, which show how the nation transcended in terms of race. The artist’s paintings tell the story of how Black people migrating after slavery made a living and searched for better opportunities, but were welcomed with new challenges like segregation.
