SUMMARY:Artist Talk + Performance: “Reggie Wilson/Fist and Heel Performance Group: POWER”
DESCRIPTION:Join the Milwaukee Art Museum for its explosive’s debut of POWER\, the celebrated dance performance work by Reggie Wilson/Fist and Heel Performance Group.

Part lecture and part performance\, this unique program explores the often-overlooked history of Black Shakers and the cultural intersections that shaped their communities.

On Thursday nights from 4 to 8 p.m.\, admission is pay-what-you-wish at the door\, while tickets purchased online in advance are full price. The Milwaukee Art Museum is grateful to its exhibition sponsors. \nAbout the artist\nReggie Wilson is the founder\, executive and artistic director of Fist & Heel Performance Group\, which he established in 1989.

A graduate of New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts\, Wilson has lectured\, taught\, and led community projects across the United States\, Africa\, Europe\, and the Caribbean. \nImage credits: Fist and Heel Performance Group\, POWER (detail)\, 2024. © Photo by Johanna Austin

SUMMARY:Author Talk with Nora L. Rubel
DESCRIPTION:Join author Nora L. Rubel for a fascinating look at the history and legacy of The Settlement Cook Book\, first published in Milwaukee in 1901 by Lizzie Black Kander. \nCreated from cooking classes Kander taught to young immigrant women at the Milwaukee Jewish Mission\, The Settlement Cook Book began as a charitable effort to teach practical\, nutritious\, and affordable cooking.
